There are standard white box markers, but the northernmost corner and westernmost corners are difficult to see because they are in the wooded area and the rally-course, respectively.

The Sponsors:
Kramer Upchurch, the president of Southeast Aero has always been a supporter of the club. Southeast Aero has sponsored our Keystone contest and also the trip to Nationals in 2006.
	MT-Propeller has generously donated two propellers to the Eagle Sport Aviation Club. The difference with an MT Prop is amazing. We couldn't imagine using anything but an MT on our S2B. The climb performance and vibration free operation of our MT equipped 90hp Cub is simply spectacular.
Jeff Miller at Daytona Sportswear has been a big club supporter for the last couple of years. This year they have helped sponsor the contest polo-shirts.
	Flight Dynamics has provided direct financial support for many projects as well as tangible items, such as the Piper PA-25 Pawnee that the club uses as a backup towplane!
The ERAU Sport Aviation club sponsors and hosts one of the contest bar-b-q. They also provide most of the man-power to make this event possible. The "Student Club" provides free registration and hotel to all the collegiate members and they represent the University at the Collegiate Aerobatic level.
	Mike Potapaw, the owner of the Mc Donalds at Keystone Heights, has generously provided lunch during the Keystone Contest for the last 3 years.
