I think it's a wonderful idea and I would love to participate in it. Few
of us have talked about having a "real" CA State Championship in the
past, but it didn't work out. I'm a bit concerned about a location. It's
not too bad for us in the Bay Area, but how many folks from the South
will be willing to travel that far north? If you'll get a good response
from the top competitors in So. Cal (and possibly Seattle, Las Vegas
etc), then it's a no-brainer. If not, are there any other options for
the site? Santa Maria Airport? Castle? Lemoore NAS? Also, when do you
plan to do this?

Hey gang, I'm putting out a feeler to see if anyone is interested in
competing in a North-South type of State Championship. Frank and I
discussed this yesterday and came up with the idea to host an event in
Reno at Stead AFB. This site has a huge area for some very creative
course designs. It's a bit far, but we will guarantee that you'll come
home with a BIG smile, if we can pull this off. We will try to draw
people from as far as possible. If we can get 70-80 competitors, we will
try to put this event on. Friday practice 12 noon to 5pm, Saturday, 5
competition runs, Sunday, 5 more competition runs, then a quick trophy
presentation after runs are completed.
What do you guys think?? Let me know.
Jesus
AAS Pres.
