The cost of business for Auburn football
There has been a lot of talk about what the future of college athletics is going to look like in terms of money, NIL, revenue sharing, etc. To know where things are going, first you have to look at what life at Auburn and other Division I schools looks like already for athletic departments. That begins before you even begin to think about NIL and how that will work when it eventually moves in-house.
Come Fly With Us: Alabaster Radio Control Association
Alabaster Radio Control Association celebrates nearly 40 years of remote model aviation. Bob Anderson keeps a picture that is near and dear to his heart—a reminder of where it all began. It’s a photo of him as a little blond-haired boy when he was about seven years old, living in Columbus, Mississippi. He is holding the Midwest Esquire model airplane, a popular radio control model built in the 1950s that belonged to him and his father “Both my father and my grandfather were full-scale pilots,” Anderson says. “I practically lived out at my grandfather’s field. I would go out there and stay for hours.” More than 60 years later, Anderson still loves to fly, and as part of the Alabaster Radio Control Association (ARCA), he gets to gather with kindred spirits to build, repair, and fly their model airplanes and discuss all things aviation. ARCA was chartered about 40 years ago by its umbrella organization, the Academy of Model Aeronautics, a non-profit designed to promote model aviation as a “recognized sport and worthwhile recreation.” “Half of our members are retired; they will fly a couple of days and some on the weekend, primarily in the morning,” Anderson says “As long as it’s sunny and not too windy; It’s a very weather-dependent activity.” At 55 members and growing, ARCA has been active in speaking engagements and educational activities with the local schools to get children interested in aero modeling and remote flying. A few years ago, several senior ARCA members, including former Thompson Elementary School Principal Leslie Harrison, visited the fifth-grade gifted class at Thompson Middle School, helping the teachers work with the kids to build their own foam airplanes. During these visits, children learn about the physics of flight and the parts of an airplane. More than 90 children made their own airplane and then went to the football field for a “rubber band jamboree,” an event that spanned over three days. “Oh, did they have fun,” Harrison, who has been a member for more than 30 years, says. “The girls enjoyed it as much as the boys.”
