Due to the recent hurricane, the Gateway RC club has suffered severe damage to the pavilion area.  This means not only lack of shelter but the loss of electrical power.  It was also deemed this could be a safety issue.   After speaking to their club president it was determined we would not be able to use the Gateway site for our district finals. Knowing we were without a site Gateway RC reached out to the Radio Control Club of Jacksonville, FL. (JAX’S) in an effort to find an alternate site.  I have since contacted their president and now have the club approval for the use of the JAX’S field. This is fantastic news.  We will be able to keep the same contest dates and hold the contest in the same area.  The JAX’S field is paved and will support a pattern contest with no issues. Power is available, along with a shaded pavilion area.  As the CD of this contest and a member of District 3 I want to thank Gateway RC for helping us find an alternate site and JAX’S RC for allowing us to use their field.
