For our club community involvement is very import. Once a year the club selects a charity and host an event to help out a non profit organization.
The events are full days of fun, flying and fellowship at our club flying field. Each pilot is typically asked to bring a donation toward the charity, be it toys, can food or monetary. Typically the donation is approximately $10 in
value as landing fee. Although this seems like a small fee, most pilots will
bring multiple donations for their landing fees. We also raise money
throughout the afternoon by selling raffle tickets for donated items and lunch's. By
raffling off items we hope to raise more money in ticket sales than what
the items are valued at. Any donation would be greatly
appreciated! 2010 Event: Reindeer Roundup Benefiting Cowboy Santa 2011 Event: RC Airlift For Hunger Benefiting the Tarrant Area Food Bank We raised $400 Dollars and 328 pounds for the food bank despite the cooler and windier than expected weather. |
