In 2007, the Indianapolis RC Modelers club wanted to have an event that would introduce our club, and our hobby to the community, and at the same time have a very positive impact. The nearby town of Morristown, Indiana had, for years, put on their Derby Days Event, a weekend of fun that included a fish fry, a midway, a parade, music, food, etc. and culminated in a sanctioned soap box derby race held on Saturday. It was decided that our club would participate in the festivities with a display on the midway, a float in Saturday's parade, and an Air Show on Sunday afternoon. Our float was a BIG hit in the parade, and Sunday's air show was an unqualified success! HUNDREDS of spectators were treated to thrills and chills in the air show. We also gave anyone that was interested, an opportunity to try their hand a actually flying a model plane!!! The smiles on the kid's faces was priceless.
