This is really the best deal going. I missed it last time around, but totally plan to be there this time. And it's a great road trip. Bring the glider and plan to fly.

I should add that they have a tow park and a mountain with launches in two directions. Don't know if the tow park will be operating during the clinic, but it's worth meeting folks. It's just a good group of people.

It shouldn't be a problem to have a tow pilot around during the clinic
