Conversations around the Thanksgiving table tomorrow will, at some point, surely, turn to memories and funny stories from the olden days.\u00a0 Just like, equally surely, conversations do at club fields and flying events.\u00a0<\/p>\n

There isn\u2019t enough room in the museum to fly a model, and eating in the gallery is a bad idea, but the museum does want to hear your story.\u00a0 Especially, the stories of your clubs and the friendship and perseverance you share.\u00a0 How to do this?\u00a0 The best way is to contribute your club history to the History Program<\/a>, or donate club memorabilia <\/a>to the museum collection.<\/p>\n

The Piqua Flying Indians<\/a>, an inactive club in Piqua, OH, have done both.\u00a0 Former club member, Paul A. Moorman submitted a written history of the club<\/a>, as well as an original patch.\u00a0 He even went so far as to have a reproduction patch made for exhibit purposes, as the original is too fragile to display.<\/p>\n

\"PiquaFlyingIndiansold\"<\/a>\"PiquaFlyingIndiansnewpatch\"Thanks to the people and clubs that have shared the stories already this year:<\/p>\n

\"flyingdevilspatch\"<\/a>The Flying Devils of Pittsburgh is another inactive club.\u00a0 The Crespo Family shared one of the remaining patches with us.<\/p>\n

\"TexomaRCpatch\"<\/a>The Texoma RC Modelers<\/a> shared a club patch.<\/p>\n

\u00a0So did the Kent County Aeromodelers<\/a>. \"kentcountypatch\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The Deep River RC Flying Club<\/a> took a different tact and donated a lapel pin. \"DeepRiverRCpin\"<\/a><\/p>\n

These groups shared their club history:<\/p>\n

These Auglaize Buzzard Baiters<\/a>\u00a0
\nBurlington Model Airplane Club<\/a>
\nCasa Grande RC Flyers<\/a> (CGRC Flyers)
\nCentral Ohio Free Flight Club<\/a> (COFFC)
\nHighland Lake Flyers, Inc.<\/a>
\nMilwaukee Association of Radio Control Clubs<\/a> – AMA Chapter #7
\nMonmouth Model Airplane Club<\/a>
\nRainbow Aero Modelers Society<\/a> (RAMS Club)<\/p>\n

Also, thanks to the Cedar Rapids Skyhawks<\/a>, for donating a Testors Fly\u2019em Sopwith Camel ARF kit.\u00a0 \"OLYMPUS<\/a><\/p>\n

Now it is your club\u2019s turn!\u00a0 What stories do want the museum to preserve?\u00a0 Either contact Jackie at jackies@modelaircraft.org<\/a> to discuss writing a narrative for the History Program, or contact Maria at mariav@modelaircraft.org<\/a> to arrange to donate club memorabilia.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
