Starting this year, the club is trying something new to indicate who is a member and who is not at the field. We are going to be issuing colored ribbons that must be attached to your transmitter. If you need additional ribbons for more transmitters, please see me at the field or come to a club meeting where either me or Dave Heinmuller can give you the extras you need. If you lose or damage a ribbon, replacements are available. You can attach the ribbon to the antenna, the carrying handle, or anywhere else you want that makes it visible. The ribbons come a bit long, but you can cut them shorter so they don't get in the way, and you can use tape or whatever you want to keep it from moving if you prefer. The ribbons are to show membership status only, and don't change the need to use the frequency board system. If you have other questions, let me know. Kirk The transition of the duties of Membership Secretary from Earl Nester to Dave Heinmuller is almost complete. Dave now has the membership stuff and is getting things rolling. If you mailed in your membership form recently, there might be a bit of a delay in getting your membership card, since the form has to make its way from Earl to Dave. If you haven't sent in your membership form yet for some reason, or if you have some printed 2010 forms, the new address for all memberships from now on is: c/o Dave Heinmuller 9973 Cape Ann Drive Columbia, MD 21046 The new forms have been uploaded with the correct address at the bottom of the form. So, just download, fill out, enclose your check and send to Dave at the given address! Single Adult Membership is now $75 for the year Family Membership is $85. The new member fee and the late renewal fee remain at $25. Remember, you must be a member of the Academy of Model Aeronautics to be a member of Freestate Aeromodelers, no FSA Membership Card will be mailed to you until you are an AMA member.
