The MARKS club was founded in 1957 to promote
the building and flying of radio controlled model aircraft. The club currently
has approximately sixty-five members and maintains an AMA quality flying field on
St. Lukes Road just Southeast of Fruitland, Maryland. Again in 2007, MARKS has been
designated, by the AMA, as a special gold leader club. This is the eight straight
year that the club has received this honor.
Club membership is open to anyone who has
an interest in model aircraft building or flying. Anyone interested is welcome to attend our monthly
meetings or drop by the field
to talk with some experienced flyers. Each month we post a club
newsletter, The Informer, so that you can read about the activities of
the club on an ongoing basis. Click the NEWSLETTER selection on the left to
access them.

most active members and was taken at our new field during our 2007 annual air show.
