To increase community awareness of modeling the TOP of OHIO R/C SOCIETY (TORCS) decided in the Spring of 1976, to sponsor a Delta Dart Contest for the West Liberty, Ohio Cub Scouts, TORCS supplied the Delta Darts, which were built at the regular meetings of the Scouts, using glue which was donated by the Franklin Glue Company (Titebond). Construction proceeded with few problems and by the end of May, 17 boys were ready for the Memorial Day weekend contest. The holiday began with the traditional parade throughout the town in which a float displaying most of the club's models participated. The parade terminated at the local ball park which adjoins one of the club flying fields. The TORCS provided an air show for a few hours while the Scouts were being organized to begin competition. Although a steady breeze kept times short, three rounds were flown and the three winners were selected using the two best times.
