Thank you for taking time to learn more about the Lake Sawyer Hawks RC Club. We’re a friendly, growing community of pilots flying at the Marlow Anderson R/C Airfield in Hobart / Maple Valley, WA.
We are a club of about 85 members and growing. The Lake Sawyer Hawks began in the year 2000 when the Boeing Hawks lost their airfield. A few members branched out to start a new club and find a place to fly.
After searching around, we discovered the old Hobart Landfill. On December 4, 2001, the Marlow Anderson R/C Airfield was officially opened. Since that day, the flying and good times have continued without pause.
Lake Sawyer Hawks is built on three pillars: Community & Training, Innovation & Safety, and Volunteering & Leadership.
Our members volunteer their time by offering flight lessons and helping newcomers with building, assembling, and learning to fly. We want new pilots to feel welcome, supported, and confident.
The Lake Sawyer Hawks place strong emphasis on safety, education, and innovation. From mentoring new pilots to introducing advanced technologies, the club promotes responsible flying at every level.
Members are encouraged to serve as club officers, volunteer for appointed positions, or simply join activities they enjoy. Fresh ideas and energy help us meet today’s challenges and prepare for tomorrow’s opportunities.
Our Bylaws outline responsibilities for each role so expectations are clear. Elected and appointed positions, along with smaller volunteer jobs, keep the club running smoothly.
