Except for a brief period in the 1980s, a Radio Control (RC) modelers group has existed since 1965 in Camden, a small mid-South Carolina town of about 7,000. When the Kershaw County Recreation Department started the Camden Model Airplane Club, it had only 12 members, but all belonged to AMA and the club was AMA chartered. A period of dormancy began in 1984 as members developed other interests, moved away, or dropped out for other reasons. Several flying sites were utilized before the club became inactive, but each was an empty hayfield on private land, used with the owner's permission.
