San Diego’s R/C Model Boat Club Newsletter – July 2015 - Volume 56 Issue #6 Upcoming Events: 1-2 August San Diego Cup- Power Division 9:00 3 to 14 30 Commodore – Mike Eldred (619) 807-9835 5 12-13 19-20 20 26-27 As I sit down to write the newsletter we are 11 days and a wake-up till the start of Race Week and the opening race with the VO-70’s. Councilmember Lorie Zaph from the 2nd District, which includes Mission Bay, will be there to present the City’s Proclamation and to kick off the Event. There are 89 boats entered and skippers from 20 different clubs and 6 states other than California. Unfortunately, turnout has been impacted by the economy, cost of travel and a lot of the older skippers retiring from the sport. That notwithstanding, we are going to have a great event, with six classes qualifying for National Championships. We will accept late entries. Our Principal Race Officers Are: VO-70Marl Hallberg Santa Barbara O/D Mike Eldred Soling -50 Bill Bridge ODOM Jim Atkinson Wheeler/M Greg Dawe IOM Fred Rocha Special thanks go out to all who have volunteered.
