District I - 2010/09
Each year, AMA funds allocated to the District I budget are used to sponsor flying events or aeromodeling activities with AMA-chartered clubs. To obtain AMA sponsorship, clubs must open attendance to other AMA club members and provide for adequate parking and spectator admittance. The purpose of the monetary incentive is to help clubs defer some of the cost of bringing members together in an atmosphere of hospitality and friendship for flying and fun.
