Valley Gathering March 22nd, 2014
Jan 21st, 2014 at 11:44am
 
The Wings of Wellington is very pleased to once again be hosting the Valley Gathering on 22nd of march at the Kentville soccer arena.
The event will include a swap shop, education sessions, and day of indoor flying. This year featuring indoor night flying - get those LED's ready!
Speakers on a variety of RC related topics will give interested attendees a chance to mix some flying and learning on the same day. Also – as a fourth record attempt, let’s see if we can get more 2.4 GHZ aircraft in the air at one time then those folks in Moncton. Smiley And this year the challenge is going out to our local radio stations to send a rep from each station to learn to fly and a little contest to see how long they can keep it up .
