Nebraska CornHuckFest! June 9-12
We look forward to hosting the 5th stop in the 2011 HuckFest Tour! A schweet Nebraska Corn"Huck"Fest will be on June 9th - 12th!!!!
Our group has been diligently planning and will have a great event with fun and shenanigans. We should have some pretty cool raffle items and such too.
A few highlights -
Event website at http://www.CornHuckFest.com
Location -
The Lincoln Sky Knights (LSK) club is located on the edge of Lincoln, Nebraska -134th and Waverly Road – Waverly, NE (see map image) The LSK Club is centrally located and we have been the host of numerous large scale events include the NATS three times. According to the AMA website, we have 95 clubs in a 250 mile radius, with ours about the largest.
The Field -
The Lincoln Sky Knight field is 20 acres and is surrounded by flat farmland and has lots of over-fly room with no obstructions. We have two runways one asphalt runway in 40’ x 400’ (excellent condition, just resurfaced the runway in 2010) and an irrigated grass runway 80’ x 450’ We also have an 80’ x 300’ foot pond for float flying or tail touching! Both paved and grass pit areas are available to pilots. (see photo) No noise restrictions and we are turbine friendly.
