NEW Rates for 2008

Thank you for your interest. The WORKS Club, (Western Ohio Radio Kontrol Society) indeed has a flying field in the Franklin/Carlisle/Germantown, Ohio area. Our field is located at 10491 Carlisle Pike (Ste Rte 123) just west of Carlisle Ohio. We use a private full scale airport located at that address. The field is known as Hummel Field and is listed on airport maps.
Our membership requires Academy of Model Aeronautics membership in addition to WORKS Club membership. Juniors (under the age of 19 AMA membership runs from $1.00 per year to $15.00 per year dependant upon whether you want to receive the monthly AMA magazine, which is crammed full of news, hints, tips and some advertising. For adults, the AMA Membership is $58.00 per year. Both membership types include a substantial liability policy, which is in addition and secondary to home owners or renters insurance, in case you are involved in an accident with your airplane. AMA also has a PARK Flyer membership with a reduced Liability and no Medical coverage for $29.95 per year, however this type of AMA membership does not qualify for Membership in WORKS.
The membership in WORKS for 2008 is $100.00 . Junior memberships are $25.00 per year. Also available is a Family membership which can include Mom, Dad and Children under the age of 19 for $100.00. Membership Fees for new members only are prorated after July 4th, according to the number of months left in the year when you are accepted into the club.

AMA membership is required for all WORKS membership levels.

Volunteering in WORKS is somewhat limited. We have a mowing list which usually gets all members except Juniors, Seniors and those with medical restrictions to mow the field twice yearly.
You would be paired with another member not only for speed but for safety.  Of course all of the Officers and Board Members are on an elected volunteer basis. There are also several different committees that are also volunteer

WORKS has a student pilot program, where you are paired with an Instructor. The Instructor will take your plane off, recover the plane from crashing when possible and land the craft until such time as you are capable of solo flights. The student pilot night is on Wednesday evenings during Daylight Savings Time, but once you get started you can fly at other times (weekends, other weekdays) if an instructor is available.

Our club meetings are held at the field (June through August) on the last Tuesday of each month at 7:30 PM. Board Meetings also are held at the field at 6:00 PM. Beginning in September and running through May the meetings are back indoors at the Old Washington Township Hall (Town Hall Theatre), 27 N. Main St. in Centerville. In the Lower lever (Basement). The Winter meeting times are Board Meeting at 7:00 PM and Club Meetings at 8:00 PM

If you have any further questions, don't hesitate to ask. Hopefully, I'll see you at the next club meeting If you can make it, or come by the field on Wednesday evening (during Daylight Savings Time) and see how student pilot night works.
