I heard the Southside team won, but not by much.

Here's a copy of the article in the latest Plainfield Screaming Eagles Newsletter:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Wow, what can I say? The City Wide Fun Fly was a great event. It was held at our field on Saturday, August 21. There were 17 registered flyers, 8 from the Screaming Eagles, 7 from the Southside Club and 2 from Danville. Many others came out to watch as well.
Cloudy skies and a slight wind down the runway made for ideal conditions throughout the contest.

The huge success was mainly due to our club members that helped during the day.
John Nyland put up the signs and had the field in tiptop shape. (Several people commented on how nice our field looked).
Mark Crittenden ran the concessions. The “Donations Only” bucket yielded a profit
of about $40.

Ron Richardson was taking wonderful pictures during the whole event. He is a real pro with that camera and long lens.
Our judges and scorers did a fantastic job. They were Gary Cornwell, Andy Clark, Tim Woods, Shea Farnsley, and Doug Nastally. They kept the contest moving and running smoothly without any problems.

Steve Ragsdale was the CD and carefully explained the rules during the pilots meeting.
Participants from our club were nice guy Dietz, Al Myers, Doug Fish, Mike Karnes, Bob McClure, Joe Winterrowd, Eric Hurst, and Steve Ragsdale (our highest scorer).
In the end, a good time was had by all.

And oh, a rally in the second round came up short for the Screaming Eagles as the Southside Club won again by a very narrow margin.

If my math is OK, it looks like the margin was 1455 to 1230, edge to the South Side Club.  Way to go guys!!!
