These are just the people that a local AMA club or member would want to talk to about creating a flying site! The goal was to speak with as many of these leaders as we could in order to inform them of AMA clubs that were looking for new or additional flying sites. This is one of many ways that AMA works to support our clubs and members by reaching out to local government officials and try to create new flying sites.<\/p>\n<p>We spoke with many officials who indicated that they would be interested in creating a flying site in their city! Even if your club already has a flying site, becoming connected with your city\u2019s park and recreation department can help the club improve what it already has, or expand to additional sites. It can also help your club be more secure about its flying site situation.<\/p>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td valign=\"top\"><strong>Arkansas<br \/>\n<\/strong>North Little Rock<\/p>\n<p><strong>California<\/strong><br \/>\nIrvine<br \/>\nSan Luis<\/p>\n<p><strong>Colorado<\/strong><br \/>\nColorado Springs<\/p>\n<p><strong>Georgia<\/strong><br \/>\nEatonton<\/p>\n<p><strong>Iowa<\/strong><br \/>\nGrinnell<\/p>\n<p><strong>Idaho<\/strong><br \/>\nNampa<\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\"><strong>Illinois<\/strong><br \/>\nMadison<br \/>\nMorton Grove<br \/>\nMapleton<br \/>\nDolton<br \/>\nLockport<\/p>\n<p><strong>Kansas<br \/>\n<\/strong>Shawnee<\/p>\n<p><strong>Kentucky<br \/>\n<\/strong>Georgetown<\/p>\n<p><strong>Louisiana<br \/>\n<\/strong>Lake Charles<br \/>\nMandeville<\/p>\n<p><strong>Maryland<br \/>\n<\/strong>Prince Frederick<br \/>\nSilver Spring<\/p>\n<p><strong>Montana<br \/>\n<\/strong>Missoula<\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\"><strong>New Jersey<br \/>\n<\/strong>Hackensack<\/p>\n<p><strong>Oklahoma<br \/>\n<\/strong>Altus AFB<\/p>\n<p><strong>Tennessee<br \/>\n<\/strong>Franklin<\/p>\n<p><strong>Texas<br \/>\n<\/strong>Desoto<br \/>\nJoint Base San Antonio\/Fort Sam Houston<\/p>\n<p><strong>Utah<br \/>\n<\/strong>West Valley City<\/p>\n<p><strong>Virginia<br \/>\n<\/strong>Spotsylvania<br \/>\nFairfax<\/p>\n<p><strong>Washington<br \/>\n<\/strong>Tacoma<br \/>\nEdmonds<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>If any clubs or members would be interested in following up on these prospective flying site locations, contact Tony for more information.
