I missed this post or would have been there. Warm thought to all.

If the web site shows me as "active" does that mean I have paid my dues for this year?

Looks light at Woodstock all afternoon. We will need to get a thermal to have a chance of staying up. I still plan on flying. Probably get there around 2pm.

This coming week

VDOT is scheduled to start repair work on Woodstock tower road this mixtape week. I don’t know estimated length of time for the work. Suspect at least two or three week.

I cut the high grass on both launches yesterday. Edith's gap has a lot of ground vines, briars, thorny bushes and some trees below the trimmed area that should be eliminated. If you don't get off the ground before the high brush you won't get far and you glider will be on all the thorny bushes. Wood...

Woodstock also is looking good. I may head out this afternoon.

Joe

I plan to come and help with cleanup and launches.

Below is a summary of my accident in October of my landing in Strasburg. I was flying my Falcon 170. Accident Report Woodstock, October 24, 2018 It was a moderately strong day at Woodstock. I believe I was the third person to launch. All six or seven of us had good flights (Gary Smith, John Middleto...

Would one of our techie talented folks post an aerial map on our club web site depicting the two current approved landing fields, (The bridge field and the PG field in front or launch) in green and also Show the old Woodstock LZ shaded in red with a comment DO not land there? We apparently had some ...

Thanks Mark. Great articles.

Joe

I will be in New York on the 14th unfortunately. I assume there will be a club meeting as well. Is that a correct assumption?

Joe

anyone flying Woodstock today?

Joe

Forecast looks a bit strong. Possibly work late afternoon. Blowing hard this am in Strasburg. Not sure I will head out today. It's cold too.

Joe

My personal belief at the moment is that the Bridge field purchase is within our ability to raise funds for purchase in a short time frame. Once Pangle Auction folks post their sale information we might have a better idea of the value of the property.

Joe

I meant to post this comment on this forum along with the same post on the facebook page yesterday. The farm owned by Linda Hill, 1598 Cemetery Rd is indeed being Auctioned on November 6th, election day (not October 6th as I mentioned earlier. the Real Estate Agency is Pangle Real Estate and Auction...

I believe you are correct about the land owner thought he could get the easement change/dropped. The raparian easement along the rivers edge may not be in the 70.452 acres you mentioned. The current deed held by Mr Parsons states 95.4 acres.

Yes John, I believe the fields on both sides of the road to launch by are going for sale by auction. I am going to try to confirm that today. The property also includes one of the houses near the dam.

Joe

I was just told that the Bridge Field land owner is Auctioning their farm in three or four sections on October 6th. Prangle Auction folks supposedly handling the sale. The bridge fields is likely to be the first section sold. I tried to verify the sale on the Prangle web site but nothing is posted a...

Hello everyone, I was able to obtain a copy of the deed of sale for the Woodstock LZ along with the Deed of Easement for the property. I will get an attorney to review the easement. The easement seems to clearly state that the land is solely for agricultural or forestal purposes and not for building...

Hello everyone, I learned today that the Woodstock LZ property is likely going on the market through two realtors in the next month. I hope to have more information tomorrow and will post when I get some details. So everyone interested in supporting the purchase of the LZ evaluate the level of your ...

I spoke with Patrick Terry/ CHGPA President this morning and learned more. There was a breakfast meeting, Saturday Sept. 15 among the Woodstock Town Staff ( person in charge of Easements and or Head of tourism) and the land owner. I believe all of the hang gliding and paragliding community needs to ...
