AMA District 1 Outreach "Toolkits"

Promotional and Marketing materials for members and clubs


Welcome to the AMA District 1 Outreach "Toolkits" page! Here, you'll find free resources to download, share, or print for outreach events, school visits, club activities, and more. We encourage using both club literature and AMA promotional materials, as AMA is the first and largest FAA-authorized Community-Based Organization (CBO) in the world. Remember, the MEMBERS form the CLUBS, which make up the DISTRICTS of The Academy of Model  Aeronautics—your passion, your hobby, ONE community!

Our aim is to promote the benefits of AMA membership both within the aeromodelling community and to the public. These resources help convey a consistent message and foster increased membership, vital for our member-driven non-profit. Thank you for sharing these resources with anyone interested in aeromodelling as a hobby or educational tool. AMA offers much more than just "insurance and a magazine." Our district volunteer leaders (DVPs- District Vice Presidents, AVPs- Assoc. VPs, LMs- Leader Members, Club Officers, CDs Contest Directors, EMs Event Managers) are here to assist you.

We’ve created materials that are easy to produce and share. Other available outreach items from AMA HQ (Clubs Department) include Model Aviation magazines, FPG-9s, "Quick Projects," and AMA gliders. Some items may be available at a nominal cost or in bulk for savings.

We’re continually working with AMA marketing to expand this "Toolkit" concept. Please check back often for updates!
