History Of The River Valley Flyers

The River Valley Flyers model aircraft club was formed in the mid 1980's by a group of model airplane enthusiasts from the Central Wisconsin area. Our early days of flying sites included the Stevens Point and Wisconsin Rapids Municipal Airports. In the 1990's we moved to our current flying site and have been actively flying there since then. Over the years our club has hosted numerous flying events at this location, including Pattern events, Electric Meets, and Club Fun-Fly's. Our club maintains its current flying site with club member participation of the weekly maintenance and upkeep of the flying strip at our club field. We offer flight training assistance to new members if they want help and have members willing to help set up and test fly new aircraft. We have club nights in the summer where we fly together as a group.
