BBQ #2 - June 22, 2019
Well... the first day of summer is June 21. Our field renewal at SP is underway. What a time to celebrate! Come join us for a BBQ on Saturday, June 22 - rain date will be Sunday, June 23.
We're planning to have burgers and sausages. We will replenish a few other supplies but we will be good to go!!!
The event is free to members but an optional anonymous nominal donation will be appreciated to help defray costs - we missed placing the donation tin out at the last BBQ but will have it prepped for next weekend.
Questions? Let us know!!! Let's make it a fun event and celebrate summer at SP with friends!

Saturday is looking rainy and cooler. Sunday is looking better.
BBQ postponed to SUNDAY, JUNE 23!
This does not exclude flying for tomorrow if conditions permit!

Well.... it's a windy Saturday morning. Too windy for me. Did anyone make it out for a flight or two? How were conditions?
The forecast for tomorrow is looking fairly windy but less gusty than today. Hoping that conditions will be okay for the planned BBQ....!

Well... well.... welll!!! What a great morning! Winds were certainly gusty but that did not take away from the enthusiasm of our HEFA group! Still lots of flying. A couple of more training flights - in blustery conditions - with Shelley (who is doing great!). And... the BBQ. Lots of food and drinks. Thanks to Bob for (once again) cooking up a storm with the burgers and sausages! Thanks, to, for those who donated an anonymous amount to help offset the BBQ costs.
Shelley took some photos that we hope to be able to share soon.
Great turn-out. Fun times. Hello SUMMER!! We've missed you!

Some nice shots Shelley. However they do not reflect the high winds we had. A big cheer for you for flying in today's winds when most of us were grounded. You showed them!

Tks John! It is an enjoyable challenge taking pictures of the planes in flight; need to get some photos of your gliders in flight. Today was super windy with new learning techniques, and our discussion was added value to making the day!
