<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>For those in D5 or 6 who didn't make this, it was a blast! Terry did a great job of putting it together; a very laid back, friendly contest. Great site, terrific overfly horizon, and PLENTY of Kansas hospitality!</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> In addition, we had 30 degree wind chill, gusty and variable North winds on Saturday morning, but by noon, it turned VERY nice. Classes were pretty even in attendance from Intermediate, Advanced and Masters, with one each in FAI and Sportsman. With the exception of the usual contestant-judging hiccups ( is it EVER easy to coordinate that?), things ran well.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> The only "controversy" would have been something about "ooohhing" and "aaahhing" from the North end of the pit area during Masters' class.....hmmm. <VBG></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> Great parking, pit area, and great grass all over!</FONT></DIV>
