Gents, Due to expected high temperatures and the bad weeds conditions at the Lake we will be canceling the July 31st make up session Poway lake staff indicates weed control will resume within the next few weeks. So we will suspend all fly sessions until August 21st,. as I assume the weeds issue will be address by then. If things look good sooner, we could start up again on Read more
Bob Says for July 2023
We generally fly every other Monday, except Holidays. In case of a holiday, we will often pick the Monday before or after as the makeup day. We will notify members via email of the makeup day. So yes, this means we may fly consecutive Mondays on occasion. Please check the calendar for scheduled flying days. Our primary use of the lake is for RC aircraft although we do allow RC boats as a secondary usage. Please see the rules regarding RC boating. You are required to be both a current AMA member and Lake Poway Skimmers member to operate any RC aircraft or boat at the lake.
If the weather looks bad and we have to cancel a flying session, we will notify members via email by 11:00am Monday (day of). We will also notify members if the following Monday will be a makeup day.
Note we are permitted by City of Poway to fly every Monday but currently this is too hard on our site setup workers. We are working on adding more set up workers and plan to add flying dates to some months. We are only committing flying every other Monday at the current time.
Also, I would like to remind members that we need to drain and dry our planes and boats before leaving. This was requested to help prevent the spread of mussels (that are present even in Lake Poway) to other bodies of water.
Thanks,
Bob
