Central Arizona Modelers, Inc.

On behalf of the AMA, the Central Arizona Modelers, Inc. has been awarded with a Flying Site Development Grant worth $408.57. The club has been an AMA Chartered Club for 36 years. Club members fly at their field in Cottonwood, AZ. The club’s goal is to encourage fun and safe operation of radio controlled model aircraft. The Central Arizona Modelers always welcome visitors and pilots to share the joy and satisfaction of the hobby of model aviation. The club is mainly interested in social interactions rather than competitions, but will hold the occasional contest. Club members enjoy flying everything from trainers to scale to 3D. The Central Arizona Modelers’ flying site is located on Forest Service land. They maintain the access road for high ground clearance vehicles which is not conducive for transporting models and visitors’ vehicles. The grant from the AMA will allow the club to buy equipment to maintain the road as well as help with field maintenance and reducing manual labor for primarily senior citizen club members.
