TJ Kraushaar from All Wayz Broke RC Car Club talked about their club. They are mostly bashers. They have a FB and web site. They do crawling, jumping and bashing.

He had some RC air stuff to learn about.

There was discussion around having various RC club leaders meet occasionally to see what each other are doing and maybe coordinate activities.

The VRCF Christmas Party will be Jan. 14 th Sunday night. Some Spouses and family welcome. Ideas were floated and Joe said he’d find out more info from each of them. Crooked Pint on 13 th Ave S., Billiards, Golf Addiction, …..

There is some interest in updating our club logo. We decided to get submissions and review them in January.

Andrew O. is working to help keep our FB page clean from scammers.

Dec.9 is the next indoor at Rustad Rec. Starting in the new year we will meet at the Sports Bubble – Feb, Mar. Apr. club meetings. Friday night at 7, 8-10 flying, $15

Our big regional indoor will be March 16, 10-5 at the bubble. $30, prizes

Try for 501 c3, then set up digital payment stuff.

Air Show – need lead. Check with them about where we can fly to see if it’s worth it. Will it be close enough to see. In any case the club should volunteer for setup to earn $50-$60 per person towards the club. Also our static display needs to be manned.

A young member wanted to know if its OK to set up a Geocacheing site at the field. It was agreed that we can.

Several members are interested in club racing? We decided to start with open to any plane racing and once it gets established start adding rules.
