PEKIN, IL: The Pekin R/C Club earlier this
year hosted Boy Scout Troop 65 from Pekin.
The Scouts were accompanied by the
Scoutmaster Steve Dodd and Assistant
Scoutmaster Larry Sims.
Scouts (L to R) Kasey Dodd, Taylor
Wilcoxson, and Paul Sims with the Pekin R/C
Club president Denny Baker.
After a talk by club president Denny
Baker about how the transmitter controls
work via the buddy box, the Scouts were
ready to take to the air. In a short time the
Scouts were flying by themselves.
Pictures and information were sent in by
Kenny Harkness.
Larry Roberts helps Scout Bryce Wilson.
