Christmas Party
The Christmas Party was a great success.
Tom Fenn and our outgoing President Bill Hermes kept it lively and fun.
Before the party was over everyone present had won a prize. The big winners
netting themselves great models were: Tom Campbell who won a Tracer Pattern
Plane. Jerry Mingo came away with a Cap 232. Tom Stephens got himself a
great Lanier Stinger 60 model. Everyone had lots of Fun!
From The Editor
Greetings and Salutations to you All!
As your new Newsletter Editor I hope to maintain the quality in print as
my predecessor Jerry Mingo. Thanks Jerry for a job well done! I’m not sure
how many of the membership I have met, but I hope to get |
acquainted
with all those I haven’t. My name is Michael
Rosado. I’ve been working for the Department of Defense for the last
32 years. At the present time I’m an Instructor / Installer with
the USANETA-ITID Basic Installers Course. My wife Carmen and I been married
32 wonderful years. We have two children, Miguel and Carrol Lynn. Our four
grandchildren keep us young and on our toes. As a young man
I became interested in model aircraft after seeing some people flying their
models, in New York’s Central Park. I just fell in love with flying. Although
I really never had the time or the finances, I never lost my love for the
hobby. After many years I’m into it, and enjoy it like a kid with
a new toy. Now, I need to learn how to fly well! May God bless
you All. Happy Flying!
The President’s Corner
I feel honored
to have been elected President of the Mesquite Modelers RC Club.
Bill Hermes has done a tremendous amount of work over the years as club
president. His shoes will be hard to fill to say the least.
There are
many of you out there wondering who Al
Tomlinson is. I’m 45 years old and live in Bisbee. My wife name is
Cheryl and we have one son. Sean is 11 years old. We’ve been married for
24 years. I’ve been employed by the |
Cochise
County Sheriff’s Office for the past 24 years. I’m currently assigned to
the patrol division, and supervise the Bisbee Substation. I’m also assigned
to the training staff. I train and certify our deputies in the use of firearms.
My previous assignment was supervising the community services unit and
the DARE Program. On a part-time basis, I also teach Criminal Justices
for Cochise College, both in a traditional classroom and online. I’ve been
flying radio control aircraft for the past 11 years. Les Wolslagel was
my flight instructor.
Some things
to look forward to:
I have been
in contact with the president of the 2001 Sierra Vista Airshow, Stu Dutcher.
He has assured that the MMRCC will be flying more often and closer to the
crowd this year. I would like the members to consider putting together
and Airshow team for the show.
We need members
that will volunteer to take on things such as a cross-country event in
the spring. I would also like to see a fun fly or two.
This club
is what the members make it. By working together tis coming year, this
club can be better than it already is.
I’m looking
forward to serving! Exciting times are ahead.
Be safe!
Al Tomlinson
