Default UK Glider pilot visiting Minnesota

There used to be a couple of gliders at the Bong Airport in Superior
Wisconsin, just east of Duluth. They had a k-21 and a 1-26. Not sure
if they are still there but is worth a call to the airport to find
out.

Hi,

I'm a UK based glider pilot and I will be working in the northern
part of Minnesota in late April and for most of May.

I have a US airman's certificate for sailplanes as well as single
engine land planes.

Is there a gliding club in the northern part of Minnesota that
welcomes limeys?

Advice would be greatly welcomed.

Thanks,

Mike
