I dont fly IMAC(yet) but I CD'd a contest last year and am hosting another this year as well. My expenses were considerable and after all was said and done the club made a couple hundred dollars to give up their field for a weekend at one of the nicest times of the year.

Trophies 400.00

Food... 450.00 with free lunch Saturday and a BBQ that night. Sunday was out of the flyers pocket for a burger and coke.($4.00)

I admit that I didnt solicit any free givaways for the pilots but none of the guys seemed to be looking for freebies anyway.

After other little stuff it all adds up to about 1000.00 bucks.

We had 26 pilots at 35 dollars each to achieve the modest "profit" for the club. This year will be 40 with a 5 dollar discount for IMAC members.

Compared to other forms of entertainment this is a bargain.

Where else can you legally have as much fun for the $$??
