I'm President of the Frederick Model Aircraft Club, and we are anticipating the possibility of conflicts between development and interested in pursuing use of park land, but have been less than successful. I think there is an opportunity here for all the Capital Area flying clubs to form a coalition and work with local authorities with a single voice. Perhaps that way we can better obtain support for designated park lands for model aviation.

WTG Brad. With some experience with local officials, if you have a meeting with them get all you can to show up. Don't just do a petition thingy, get as many faces staring down the officials as often as you can.
