For those of you that might have missed the discussion at Black Dirt, its not clear that we will be able to have the Regional Finals at the end of September there in 2020. There are a number of reasons that I won't elaborate on, but needless to say, I would like to start discussing alternatives. It seems like a long way off, but in reality, its essential for the rest of the 2020 planning.
One option I would like to hear feedback on would be rotating the regional finals to different parts of the region. I know that Pegasus RC in Hagerstown would LOVE to host the regional finals, and the more temperate weather would allow us to push it even further out (possibly October). That would also open up more time in the calendar to hold other regional contests. We could do the regionals in the south one year, and the north the next year.
Another option will take a little more leg work from all of us to identify a more centrally located field that will be IMAC friendly. That option would probably require us to continue ending the points season in September.
I'm open to other options, but I need to hear from you, the pilots.
