Welcome Lee! I remember a futile google search myself about 6 years ago when I moved to Tennessee. I knew only of a big event in Johnson City, but couldn't find any good info online. Finally I learned of a group from my local RC club that was attending, and the rest is history.

Try building an A6, and have some fun!! ;-) If you haven't already signed up for the LPP Pro/ Am, that would also be a great idea.
