Alert fell0w members of the Brotherhood of the Ring. Several members of this Facebook Group have asked me, “How do I join the Brotherhood of the Ring?” It is really simple! All you have to do is fly a Ringmaster in one of the Annual Worldwide Ringmaster Fly-A-Thons!! Originally there was a Web Forum the “Brotherhood of the Ring” and persons that joined the Forum were then members of the Brotherhood. The Forum, which had some great posts and a great deal of Ringmaster information, crashed without a backup that could be applied. It was started over but fell victim of buggy software and ended up being abandoned! Meanwhile I started this Facebook Group and later added the Annual Worldwide Ringmaster Fly-A-Thon website so these two sites have more or less replaced the Forum as representing Ringmaster activity. Feel free to download Brotherhood logo files from here for decals and put them on your Ringmasters! The logo is copyrighted but you can use it for personal use. Just don’t use it to make a bunch of T-shirts and try to sell them for profit! Anyway, many of you are members of the Brotherhood and more will join us when they fly a Ringmaster next month! Ringmasters Rule!!! John Cralley
