Andrew Findlay then addressed the AAC and explained the event and requested the AAC approve the use of the infield area known as the "triangle" to hold the event. The AAC discussed safety, liability, and crowd control issues with Mr. Findlay and the Airport Manager. Rick Fereday wanted to know if the Club could use the park next to the river. Mr. Findlay and Mrs. Titus explained that the parking and preparation work required would be too great. The Club would like to find a permanent home for the event instead of moving every year. All the issues were addressed to the AAC's satisfaction. The McCall Snowmobile club will be responsible to provide all crowd control and proof of liability prior to the event. The Airport manager will monitor the event. It will be hosted on a weekend in February. The FAA will also be advised of the event.
