Flite Fest Ohio 2018 Volunteers
- Thread starter Andre
- Start date
They said they are going to install a rolled blacktop runway new for this year. I'm sure when the work is done we will see images on all the usual sites.

First of all: It's not going to rain this year. Period.
Second: The straw is meant to absorb some of the water and mix with the mud to become a more firm surface. The geotextile that was used for runways will just let all the water through and be stomped into the ground. I'm not sure that'll work.
My suggestion still is to get the military involved and have them lay temporary roads - or bridges if it gets really bad

Flite Fest Ohio 2018 Volunteer Update #5
Good morning volunteers.
To the 9 volunteers who signed up since the last email blast... HI!
In less than 3 weeks we will be in full swing.
Over the coming days (if my planning goes as planned) I'll have a plan... LOL
I've started reviewing everyone's volunteer submissions so I can map out who can help setup, tear down and if they have any days where they are not available.
As we get closer and closer to the event date I hope to have more information to share from Austin and the FT team.
In the mean time, NO RAIN DANCING... Got it
Have a great weekend.
As always if you have any questions please feel free to ask.
Andre.

I had hoped to lure some rain over here where it can't do damage during flite fest, but if you say so...Andre said:In the mean time, NO RAIN DANCING... Got it
I just filled out my Volunteer application for this year. depending on how well my ankles are I might be able to help with setup and teardown.
Anyone up for more german chocolate this year?

If we want to volunteer to help setup for Flite Fest, when does setup start and end?

Thanks for the information. One more quick question: Can we setup our campsite on Wednesday if we help with Setup?

I live up the road and I've got the week off starting Monday. I'll do whatever I can to help all week. Not sure that was the case when I initially signed up so I wanted to make sure you were aware.

Oh, I've signed up. Just meant I can help as early as Monday if there's anything I can do to help that early.
