Greetings All,

This April, the action in D-7 returns to Arvin, CA for the 1st Annual Bear Mountain Flyers Pattern Showdown. Join us on April 18th & 19th, at one of southern California's premier flying facilities for two days of nonstop pattern action. Directions to our field can be found at http://bearmountainflyers.net/directions

We'll be flying all AMA classes plus FAI Silver with trophies awarded to third place. Please check out the attached flyer for all of the contest details.

Our club is pulling out all the stops to produce a truly first class event. For those attending from out of town, we want to give you more reasons to make the trip than just great weather. Our field will be open and available for dawn to dusk practice for days prior to the event. To make things a bit more civilized, we've obtained a group discount at the Hampton Inn (on route 58 in Bakersfield) which offers superior accommodations at an affordable price. Please be sure to reference the Bear Mountain Pattern Event when booking.

That's it for now, please make your reservations early for what promises to be one of the highlights of the contest season.....!
