John and Tina Schroder's Clover Creek Aerodrome
It started with a dream, a vision John Schroder nurtured for many, many years. It was a dream to cultivate a world-class venue and bring Radio Control (RC) Aerobatics enthusiasts together to enjoy a site dedicated to their passion. His vision to found and host a World Aerobatics Championship, attracting the very best from all over the world, has become reality.
In 2007 John finally realized the opportunity to pursue his dream and bring it to fruition. John, and his wife Tina, set out to find the perfect site to transform into a central location for all RC Airplane enthusiasts to visit and enjoy. They discovered a 207 acre Sod Farm in Toone, Tennessee up for grabs and jumped on the opportunity as soon as they saw it. Words cannot describe how beautiful this property really is! John and Tina’s new home is now affectionately known to many as “a slice of RC heaven.”
In the short span of a year, John and Tina settled in, got to work, and transformed their Western Tennessee sod farm into an RCer’s dream ready to host the first Clover Creek Invitational Aerobatic Championship. The inaugural Clover Creek Invitational took place on the first weekend of September, 2008. This event brought together 12 of the best RC Pilots in the world to try and take top honors, and a slice of the $50,000 cash prize! Concurrently, Clover Creek also hosted 40 International Miniature Aerobatic Club (IMAC) pilots in classes from Sportsman through Unlimited. They competed for bragging rights in their respective classes, and some very nice prizes and awards generously donated by many RC manufactures.
The 2008 Clover Creek Invitational was the first of we hope will be many first class events to take place at this picturesque venue. Our next “Invitational” is slated for Labor Day weekend 2010, Septmber 2-5 with a rain date of the 6th. You can find a list of available hotels as well as directions by clicking HERE.
Thank you for stopping by the website. Take a look around and read all about the past, present, and the very exciting future at Clover Creek Aerodrome!
Take Care and God Bless!
