Just want to add a few things in here - as I am a newbie

My club offers free instruction- Which has worked out pretty good so far. But, I offered to pay at first. At my first free lesson, the instructor told me to NEVER pay for lessons. If I pay for lessons, (in the area I am in) I am just getting taken advantage of. What I have learned from the people in my group is that the repayment back to the club for the time and help they all provide, is for yourself to do the same in the future for someone else that is starting out.

But, what Lenny says kind of strikes a chord with me. Sometimes, when I go to my field, I feel bad asking these guys to help me out. They never say no, or show any signs of NOT wanting to help, but in the nack of my mind I think "This guy is thinking 'oh god,, and all I wanted to do is come out a fly for a while'"
