Default Community outreach program

For the second year the Clark County R/C club hosted their Community outreach program. The intent of the program is to introduce the club and its members to the general public in an effort to promote the hobby and educate them on our operations. We had approximately 175 visitors during the 4 hour event yesterday. During that time we had a treasure hunt for kids under 12, buddy box flying, hand toss gliders for the kids, free hot dog lunch and lots of flying demonstrations of multiple types of aircraft. After the flying demonstrations were over we had a huge raffle. Raffle tickets were given at each treasure hunt checkpoint and each person that signed our visitor sheet. These events are made possible through not only the hard work of the club members but through financial assistance from the AMA who contributed the sum of $900.00 to help with expenses.
