2021 Calendar

[Dave Dupre]

We're still working on the full calendar. CDs, please get dates to me and submit all your AMA paperwork. In the meantime, I thought I would add a calendar we can all subscribe to. I will keep this and the site up to date, but it's nice to see everyone in a calendar view as well.

Hello All! I wanted to give everyone another update on the 2021 calendar. We have 8 events on the calendar so far. The remaining events to be scheduled are:

State College (pending 5/15-16) - We are on hold for State College still. Club members are concerned that May might be too early given the COVID situation. We are looking to reschedule for July or August (preferably August). More info to follow.

All the Canada events - Canada is still shutdown, along with the border. I reached out to the CDs, and we’re going to try and get the events on the calendar and see what happens over the coming months. Fingers crossed that we will be able to fly with our Canadien friends.

Maine IMAC Challenge (7/17-18) - The CD, Tyler McCormack, has everything approved by the AMA. Look for Maine to show up on the calendar soon.

Plum Island (7/31-8/1) - The club is onboard, but we’re looking for a CD. Daren Hudson has done it in a few times, but it’s time to bring someone else in. Who’s up for it?

Lums Pond (9/11-12) - CD is working on sanction. Look for this to show up on the calendar soon.

Finally, there is an online Spring Judging Session on Saturday, 4/10. Sign up and refresh your judging knowledge. It makes you a better pilot when you know what the judges are looking for. Plus, we need to have qualified judges for a successful contest. I know I’m always reminded of something when I go through a session every year.

I hope everyone is having a good winter, even if not able to do a lot of flying.

Now that the weather is improving, here is another schedule update.

IMAC Quebec 2021 and Saguenay IMAC IV are in process of being added to the calendar. I’m very excited at the prospect of flying with our friends from Canada again. Hopefully, we will have one more (IMAC Beauce 2021 7/3-7/4) soon.

We have a CD for Plum Island. Thank you Steve Bakke! Look for that to get on the calendar soon.

Tyler, how goes the Maine event? Please send me event details when you can.

Lums Pond has confirmed September 11-12 for their event.

Things continue to improve on the COVID front. Here’s to an exciting season and a return to a more normal season.

Now, I just need to find a way to get out and practice...

i had hoped Granite fall and Lums would have staggered this year. Maybe it not too late....

I hoped the same, but the weekend before 9/11 is Labor Day, and the week after is Regionals. At least this way everyone has a tuneup just before Regionals that is closer. Next year, we’ll see if some of these events can move around to get the max in. Weather is always a concern as we get closer or into October.
