We have all the facilities the other fields have and much more. We need to really appreciate what we have. Bob also put forth an idea to have a R/C course offered at TVCC sponsored by SRVM Club. There should be many potential R/C flyers that would be interested in taking the course. If you are interested in helping Bob conduct this course he would welcome your help. Call him at 881-8822. Bob is one of the leading professors at TVCC.
