Fellow modelers, I am writing to you on ideas in which to secure your AMA flying field. We have a nice field with alot of hard work in the last three years and we have had vandalism almost 3-4 times per year. We have a locked gate, perimeter cable to keep most people out and we still have vehicles crossing thru the ditch or overgrown pasture lands and rutting our runway and pit area-we all know how much work it takes in planting grass, watering the grass via truck potable water and the list goes on. The police are called every time and reports taken but no results. We have posted game cameras and the vandals took those as well-when they ran down all the pilot station fencing and collapsed the 18x21 carport we had just purchased. We are about ready to give it up-We have grown from 6 to 34 members in three years but we are getting tired-thanks
