WOW!! Great to hear this We've been looking for info on this. Do you guys have trouble getting MAAC to list it or is it normally a last minute date setting?
We love the large field. This is where I made my first landing attempt 6 years ago. And yes I did land on the runway! without crashing even.rcjetguy

Here is a quick map to the field.
Turn west off of Hwy24 onto Windham Rd 12 (Harmony Rd.)
Travel 1/2 mile to the laneway on the right side. Side entrance to Demarree Sod Farm.

Great pics of the field setup Chris; looks like maybe this IS the most out-standing site in Southern Ontario.
