Students Come to Sanderson Field
On Friday, July 10, 2015, a group of children arrived at Sanderson field in a yellow, Hood Canal School District school bus. The school bus was guided onto the field by Dan Ryder, Education Advocate for Educational Service Distric 113 (ESD 113): Dan was riding his BMW motorcycle. The Sanderson Field RC Flyers (SFRCF), Kapowsin Air Sports, LTD, and several private pilots combined their efforts to privide an exciting educational experience in aviation for the children. SFRCF members Jody Diaz, Sharon Diaz, Burton Daggett, Jack Mitchell, Stacy Myers, Dick Robb, Bob Treinen, and Royce Tivel participated in the activities at Sanderson field.

About the Images
The images were taken with a Canon Rebel T3i. I used a Canon EF-S 60mm f/2.8 Macro USM lens for the images. All images received simple processing in Photoshop and were saved as low-resolution JPEG images that were optimized for the Web.
