Man that's got to be a real pain about the club situation you have there. I know where you live in the state and only go through your town on way to Colorado for summer vacations. I would imagine that you have a problem with wind in your area. Altus OK looks fairly close to you. Is the military base still there? I would think that there should be some RCers there. I lived in Wichita Falls, for 20 years and we had a fairly active club, but that's a long way from you. If your ever in the Georgetown, TX area look up our club (GAMA) web site and find our field. We would be very happy to have you come by. I hate clubs like the one you talked about who think their sh*t is to good and resistant to new members. You know that one club (country clubers I call them) usually go away as people move and members pass on. We have some members like that here in our area, but I'm on a personnel campaign to turn that type of thinking around.
