I am planning on travelling to Calgary later this spring or summer. Following that I am looking at visiting Nipawin. In both cases visiting family. Are there any fields in thoese areas that welcome visitors? I would like to get my relatives flying on a buddy box for a bit...

Gee, if you find one near Nipawin that would be special! I, too, visit relatives there on occasion. When I have been there with planes, I just went out in the back area of my brother's acreage and cut a landing strip with his riding mower. I never looked around much for a club, and no one seemed to be aware of one.

Lets see...

Calgary...all within 45 minutes of city center (give or take)

Westwinds RC
Chinook Winds RC
Airdrie Modellers
Crams (we are losing this field in May/June for an unknown period of time)
Foothills Flyers (both heli and airplane fields)
Stampede City RC Club (giant scale)
Calgary Soaring Society (if you are into gliders)


www.modelland.com/clubs/

I am a member at Westwinds, Chinook, and Crams....all welcome visitors.

On your way to Nipawin, if you are going to be going through Prince Albert, SK, feel free to check out Prince Albert Areo Modellers field. Stop by J&P hobbies in P.A. and I am sure Jack will give someone a call to go fly with you.
