Vince,
I remember those guys. That photo was most likely 1974/75 when the Mint Julep was a pattern, scale and pylon event. I was living in Lexington, KY at the time and Dave Brown and Don Lowe came to Lexington Model Airplane Club and gave us judges training for the event. I judge the first two years and entered my first Mint Julep in '76. I've got a few of those silver plates as well. The Mint Julep was always my first contest of the year.
