The Green
River Lake R/C Club has humble beginnings that started as far back as the late 70’s and has gone through three charter
evolutions. The first chartered club in the Campbellsville area was known as the “Green River Pattern People”. The group consisted of Dan Beam, Eddie Mattingly, Carol Reeser, Lanny Atherton, Vaughan Sharp & Roger Stiles. The group consisted of guys, who had a passion and desire to learn and fly radio control airplanes, sharpen their flying skills and compete in pattern contests flying precision aerobatics. They held a few contests at Taylor County Airport and the Washington-Marion County airport. The group also assisted with the 1983 Team Selections for the World Pattern championship at Rough River State Park. They met the top fliers from all over the USA, including two past presidents of the AMA, Mr. Dave Brown and Mr. Don Lowe. The group slowly fizzled out due to loss of their pristine flying site (the airport) for site restrictions and the economic pressures of the time. After a few years, the second chartered group evolved and was known as the “Green River Lake Flying Club”. This group consisted of Dr. Joel Eade, Dr. Steve Hinton, Dr. James Ewing, Allen Johnson, Kenny Childers, Kenny Anderson, Vaughan Sharp, Eddie Graham and Roger Stiles. |
