Region 9 Director candidate seeking your assistance

[Dan T]

Hi everyone. As many of you know I am seeking election as your Region 9 Director candidate. The USHPA has recently sent out a request to all of the candidates to supply a position statement for inclusion in the magazine prior to the election.

I am running on a platform declaring my intent to work to produce more pilots, sites, and flights. I'm looking for a photograph of the launch pad at the Pulpit to show an example of how the Foundation for Free Flight has supported Region 9 and the CHGPA/MHGA in producing new sites and am requesting your assistance in obtaining one. (I consider the pad at the Pulpit to be a new site because it opened the site up to Paragliding.)

I'll have room in the candidate position statement to include include links to other photos and videos related to the subject. If any of you can provide links to launches off of the Pulpit pad or Edith's Gap launch I'd gladly include one or two of them in the text. Please feel free to email me directly at Wuffo1@aol.com if you wish.

Don't forget to vote in the upcoming Region 9 Director election. Your vote does make a difference, especially in local elections.

Dan Tomlinson
Candidate for Region 9 Director
