Additional Information Given:
The Woodland Davis Aeromodelers are proud to host the 2013 US Scale Masters Championships at our new facility, Burgdorf-Henson Field located between Woodland and Davis CA.  Our site has acres of room to accomodate RV's and campers; acres of flat over fly areas and smooth runoffs from our smooth geofabric runway and adjacent irrigated grass runway.  We look forward to hosting the best of the best from around the United States and hopefully from locations around the world.  We are easily accessed from Interstate 5 and 80 and we are only 20 minutes from Sacramento International Airport.  We expect this to be a truly special event that we hope that you will not want to miss.  Make plans now.

I thought we should post a bit about the Championships for 2013 and what happened to cause a change in the venue. We were all excited about the Alameda, CA site and it had a lot of great things about it. George E. had done a lot to bring this to the table and had received permission from the city to have it there. Then the bomb hit and the city changed there mind and giving us that they have moved up construction of a Hospital on the runway we have lost the site. Without hesitation USSMA began looking for a new site that meets our demands. Jeff L. was contacted and though he was afraid the club would not support the event it was the opposite, they voted and overwhelming supported to put on the event.

There site is fairly new but they have done a lot in a short time and now have a very nice flying field. They leveled there entire site. put in a runway, pit area, shade for the pit, power, water for the grass runway and surrounding area, large gravel parking lot and camping area. All this and no flying restrictions either. All this makes for a great site for the Champs. I commend Jeff and the Woodland/Davis club for taking on this job and feel they are going to do great. This club has put on large events for years and I see no reason they will not do a great job again. By the way this change was all done in less than a week and that could not of happened without the staff of the USSMA working quickly and diligently and a quick response from the club.
 
I am looking forward to the Qualifiers and ultimately the Championships in 2013. We will be posting as soon as info is confirmed to keep you all up to date.

Let them know at the hotel that you are with the Scale Masters event for special price.

As we get a bit closer a schedule will be posted for times during Thursday to signup for static. You will be able  to see what spots are available during the day and this will be done online. Basically you can plan on Thursday thru Sunday.  Static all day Thursday normally two flight rounds each day Friday-Saturday and one round on Sunday.  Also practice flying on Thursday if you want but advise to do only after static just in case.

Randy,
