concluded that the format would be similar to prior years and
would be open to Tri-County members and their families.

-
Civil Air Patrol (CAP) – At the January meeting, George
Estes mentioned that a number of members of the CAP were
interested in RC flying and would like to receive lesions from
our Club instructors.
After some discussion it was concluded that this would be a good
way to get younger people interested in the Club.
This raised the question as weather we should offer CAP
members a special membership rate or an annual fee that covers
all CAP members. It was
concluded that some type of special arrangement would make sense
to attract younger members but the details of an arrangement
would be decided at the February meeting.
At the February meeting it was decided that we make our
instructors available to help train CAP members with the
expectation that no later than their third lesion that they join
both the AMA and Tri-County Flyers.
In addition, Tri-County will offer CAP members a
discounted first year membership fee of $10.
