That's true. Remote (non-glider) sites are more trouble and expense (ferrying).
However, you might find that the operators are into the idea of more activity at their airport and are happy to support it.

I never even considered having a fun meet or Sanctioned race at an airport that didn't have a soaring organization based there. I suppose if there is lots of room and the airport is willing to be invaded it's always a possibility. Some potential issues might include having more difficulty getting volunteers to show up away from home fields to help out. Also the tow plane(s) would have to fly in of course. Large grass runway sounds perfect though as we get to deal with runway lights and the associated hazards at Danielson. I've received several private responses as well. It almost seems like a "If we build it they will come" scenario. For anyone interested can you please talk to your other club members and report back on potential involvement? Let's make this happen and maybe we can grow a Region 1 race in the future.
