Nats '98
September 22, 1998
Dear 1998 National Aeromodeling Championships supporters,
I would like to personally thank all of the volunteers, sponsors, Special Interest Groups, and supporters who helped to make the 1998 Nationals one of the most successful AMA events ever.
The International Aeromodeling Center hosted more than 1,200 contestants for this annual event. Elsewhere in this issue, you will find comprehensive coverage of all events that were part of the 1998 Nationals. I encourage everyone to take a close look at this issue of Model Aviation, even if you are not a competitor. There's simply no other event quite like it.
This is the fourth consecutive year that AMA's premier Muncie facility has been transformed into the home of the Nationals. Each year participation has increased as more members become aware of the potential that exists here for holding a successful aeromodeling event.
Without question, the logistics behind running an event like the Nationals require hard work, commitment, and enthusiasm. This year was no exception. All of the groups involved—volunteers, staff workers, and sponsors—pulled together to make the 1998 Nationals an event to remember.
So again, thank you for your help, and we hope to see all of you next year! Look for 1999 Nationals dates and information in upcoming issues of Model Aviation.
Sincerely,
Joyce Hager Executive Director
