TRCM – Runway project update

The old runway has been removed! Little did we know that we had three runways layers on top of each other and a lot a patches that virtually made it seem like four and all the staples to hold them all in place. The task was immense, but our club members showed up, grabbed their tools, and got to work making this happen. I could not be more proud to be a member of this fine organization and personally want to say “thank you” to each person that showed up and helped contributed to this project in one way other the other. A special thanks to our wonderful land owner that brought us his tractor and scraper that helped turn our bumpy runway into a silk smooth platform.

Tomorrow morning begins phase two, the installation of the new runway. We have a contractor showing up at 0600 and will start work shortly thereafter laying down the new runway. We can use more volunteers if you have the time to come out. The back breaking work for us is done, but we can help the contractor with preparing materials and assisting as needed, something as simple as standing on the fabric while they get the tension correct. Its also satisfying just to see the project come to completion and know that you took a part in making it happen.
