Meals are included in the registration fee and served on site, as well as limited camping and RV hookups.  Motels and lodging are withing 15-minutes of the field.  Registration fee is $280 and includes lectures and meals.  A $100 deposit secures your entry.  Tows will be available for $60 to 2,000-ft agl.

If you have any questions, or would like to discuss this opportunity, please give me a call and we can discuss it.

Thanks,
