Old Business
In March, club work crew installed PVC pipe sockets at the Christmas field to allow for easy replacement and removal of the yellow parking poles.
Kenny World property in Ocala may still be for sale, but Kenny’s daughter, Debbie, is moving in to the house.
New Business
County park officials requested that we treat the fence line to the west of our flying area as a No Fly Zone. This means that we are not to fly over the parking field between the fence line and Ft Christmas Road. This No Fly rule was caused by incidents with non-member flying that upset the field neighbors.
Raed asked county park officials if we could install a geotextile runway in our flying area, and he is awaiting their response. We discussed options for size and location – most likely on the south side of the entrance road.
The meeting was adjourned at about 10:35 AM.
