AMA Foundation's RC Resale hosts swap meet at IAC

-A A +A

On June 16 & 17, RC Resale hosted a swap meet at the International Aeromodeling Center (IAC). Hundreds of donated items were for sale, with all proceeds benefiting the AMA Foundation and the programs it supports. It was a fun two days of selling planes, meeting members, and hearing all the reasons why they shouldn't take any more planes home. I lost count of the amount of times I heard 'my wife won't let me in the house with these' or 'I'll have to sneak this in when my wife isn't home'. But we all know, you can never have too many planes! We sold many items with the help of our co-worker, Tony Stillman, and hope to have another swap meet at the IACwhen the weather gets a little cooler.  Over $3,000 was raised that weekend, but Mandee and I will remember this event as a success just for the amount of members we got to know.
