Macca: Concrete blocks may be placed in front of the gate by the farmer. If you wish to fly you will need to call the Chairman or the Treasurer by 4pm on the day before you wish to fly.

Wilden: Open.
Remember that if you choose to fly at Wilden, there is heavy duty chain with 2 padlocks.
One for use by Ivel MAC members, and The other one for use by Wilden Cricket Club members. Often only one padlock is in view, with one behind the post, if so pull the chain around the post.
