If you are going to invite a person to join the club, the AMA has a program called “Sign 3 Fly Free”. If you sign up 3 people and they use your AMA id as a referral you can get you next year renewal for free.

More details are on the website: https://www.modelaircraft.org/membership/sign-3-fly-free-program

We have submitted our FRIA application to the AMA who will in turn submit it to the FAA.
Once approved by the FAA, club members will be able to continue to fly at our field without
having to purchase additional equipment mandated by Remote ID. Remote ID is scheduled to
go into effect September 2023.

On May 13, 2023 at 10am, we will hold a membership meeting at the field. This will also be an EDF fly in day so bring one if you have one. Let’s see how many EDFs we can get in the air at one time.

Welcome to the new ‘Clay County Flyers RC Club WEBSITE’. It’s purpose to serve members, propsective members, public, and CCF BOD.

The news letter has been sent out please check out what is going on with CCF.
