Huge thanks to everyone who came out this weekend to the Tregallas Memorial Fun Fly! The heat and winds kept most of us grounded on Saturday, but Sunday we had a full parking lot and over 20 pilots over the course of the day.

Photo dump below! Huge thanks to John Kittelsrud for the photos and Eddie Andreo for the drone shot!

Club meeting Thursday the 24th at 7! There's a slight chance of rain, but we'll plan to meet at Chapin to take advantage of the cooler temps and light winds and do some flying before the meeting.

Day 1 of the Tregallas Memorial Fun Fly is in the books! We had 22 total people show but the high winds and temperatures kept most of us grounded.

Tomorrow we’ll have limbo, a balloon pop, and a pizza lunch. Winds and temperatures all look MUCH better as well. Hope to see everyone out again tomorrow!

Due to the high winds and temperatures expected Saturday, the limbo and balloon pop events will be moved to Sunday. Sunday's forecast looks much cooler and calmer throughout most of the day.
