With another flying season on the way...............
Two Flying Sites Now Available
With the recent loss of our long time Killingly field we have started flying at our Thompson site
And have just acquired a beautiful site in Brooklyn with special thanks to Paul Cristorfori an Darin Menditto, and of course the town of Brooklyn. We are presently working on the Brooklyn site to make them flight ready and should be ready by 10-16-2011. Both sites are locked entry so contact any board member for the entry combination code. This is great news for the club and I will update the website soon with directions to, and pictures of both sites .. Ronnie
