Our club has a FUN FLY in June and again in October. A fun fly is a get together of modeling pilots to show off their planes and their flying ability. We had pilots that traveled many miles to attend. The event is open to the general public to be spectators. Any pilot with a model plane (or helicopter) and a current AMA membership card is welcome to participate.

Our spring FUNFLY was held on Saturday and Sunday, June 1-2, 2002. We had a good weekend for a funfly with lots of pilots ready to fly.We had a really good turn out in spite of the hot weather.
The Henderson Club put on a good show as usual with the night flying and their 3D maneuvers.
Saturday afternoon was filled with competition and open flying.
This year we had combat on Saturday and Sunday.
There were several really good pilots  flying throughout both days.
