 The 60 Acres field is reserved for Saturdays during the periods noted as "Fun Fly 60 Acres Park". This gives SASS members the right to fly on these days even if there is another activity going on at the field. AMA Sanctioned contest days have protected reservations (no others granted).  Unprotected days may have other permitted user groups, in which case SASS members will need to coordinate with the other groups to make the best accommodation possible for all concerned.
