President

Randy Leapley, Incombent, Member since April 2023


Josè Soto, Member since January 1990


Vice-President

Edwin Boggess, Member since October 2021

I have flown RC Planes for approximately 47 years. I am currently involved in field maintenance, flight instruction and concessions during events. I am active in the club and try to keep the club in good shape for all flyers. I take pride in all that RCACF does and try to be involved in all aspects of the club. My goal to be on the Board as Vice President is to be open, honest, transparent and treat all members equally.  I am passionate about getting tasks actually accomplished once they are discussed by the Board and/or membership.  For that, I ask for your vote. 

Secretary

Tim Bucher, Incumbent, Member since September 2012

I am a retired aerospace engineer and have been building model airplanes for over 60 years. I am the current club Secretary and newsletter editor. My past service included serving as the Chief Flight Instructor. I will continue to serve the club if re-elected as Secretary to the best of my ability.

Treasurer

Doug Joest, Incombent, Member since January 2019


Membership Chairman

David Conley, Incombent,  Member since February 2022

One of my goals after retirement was to learn to fly RC airplanes.  When I moved to Florida I began to look for a club where I could make this happen.  Unfortunately, I had no idea what I was doing.  I hadn't built any kind of model for many years, and never flown RC.  I was so happy to find RCACF (from a search on the internet), become a member, and then to have others selfishly give of their time (and patience!) to teach me to fly.  I wish to continue to work as your Membership Chairman to help give back to the club and its members so that we can continue to enjoy this hobby together and make it available to other enthusiasts, whether they can fly or not!  Thank you for your vote.
