I fly in that area all the time. Another secret spot. VERY little traffic and the hospital is within walking distance if you stick your finger into a prop!

I even fly my big stuff there. Hassle for me is that its to close to drive and about 100 yards to carry all my crap.

I fly right at the end of my street (Melrose). Have to watch out for the street lights.

The "Dog House" is my workshop (~1100 sq ft). Not as big as Rick D's but everything Rick D has is bigger I'm sure

The kennel is actually attached to the house; you can see the kennel runs next to the RV pad where the CSI truck lives.

Well I guess it's not a secret now. I suppose everyone can come over and help themselves to my beer chest

Do you want a new place to swim, skateboard, or bike? How about a new fitness center? Anything else?

(No mention of a flying field?)

I vote you go down and mention a flying field.

Maybe the GQF should make a "Field Day" out of it...

We could do a protest-style thing, take all our foamies and write "give our field back" or something more catchy on the wings as we dive-bomb Gilbert parks and Rec board members...

carlsoti · Jul 18, 2012, 07:39 PM

I think the pres has done a great job at approaching this situation with the appropriate tact. I think any sort of "protest" would only hurt our situation.

I do think it would be a good idea for a club official to attend this meeting to address the issue. It might not hurt to have others there to support the issue. Those that actually live in the city of Gilbert should certainly go to support the pres, if he chooses to attend.

Thats great, but the old rodeo grounds do not belong to the Town of Gilbert, it is county property, and I have not heard that they will lease it back, especially after the multi-million dollar land buying fiasco the town was involved in. oh, that was to build a park also.
