The Academy of Model Aeronautics has awarded a $50 Club Recognition and Reward Grant to the Johnson City Radio Controllers of Tennessee. The club attracted the attention of a Northeast Tennessee magazine, Out-N-About in September 2015. Club members Rich Koenig and Mike Starnes were featured in the three-page spread about the Johnson City Radio Controllers and their interests in aircraft modeling. The AMA Club Recognition and Reward Program was established to encourage clubs to promote model aviation. The AMA offers clubs cash incentives for positive local media coverage for a public event, public service, club announcement, or other coverage. Click here to learn more about this program.
