      Mark, Len and I are looking forward to welcoming everyone once again to Sky High Acres in September. A few event notes:

      - please drive slowly and don’t raise dust past the white farmhouse on your right as you enter off Muncy Exchange Road
      - Sky High flight line is huge, so please space trailers and setups out with some vacant space between
      - there is ample space for both trailer and tent camping. All are welcome! Again, please space out
      - please observe social distancing throughout the event and when flying
      - we will NOT be doing the daily lunch this year. Please bring your own food and beverages
      - we plan to fly from noon Thursday through Sunday. Some early arrivals may kick off casual flying earlier. ;-)
      - the runway is great for small electrics with landing gear so bring a few extra toys

      PLEASE pre-register so that we can keep track on attendance levels should we need to cap — certainly the hope is not.

      Mark’s farm is among a few of the very best locations where we get to enjoy our hobby. Looking forward to seeing you all there!

        Thanks to all who have registered. Len’s trailer is in place and Mark is looking forward to the circus arriving on top of his mountain.

            Just about a week before we need to start packing those trailers!

            AMA agrees. It's going to be a great event!

                  A couple of us are arriving Wednesday, so anyone who has time and want to get away early may certainly join us there. Marks pretty excited and has opened his property up to the group to use for the week,

                  As Steve mentioned above and as a LOUD reminder, PLEASE go very slow when entering the dirt road. There is an elderly woman living in the house at the beginning of the road and the dust from vehicles covers her patio and all its chairs, tables, etc. Please be courteous and thoughtful when entering, you would not want that to happen to your house.

                  See you all there, bring something to fly at night too.

                      All packed up and ready to head out. I've spoken to a few guys that are planning to arrive early and the owner Mark is fine with everyone being there any time this week. Come out early and stay late.
