Default Promote your glider operation

I was one of the volunteers at the recent Tucson Soaring Club Open
House and the response from the public was just amazing. We gave over
120 guest rides in two days over the weekend (even managed a couple on
the Friday for folks who showed up early). I have never seen so many
continuous launches - two towplanes on the go intertwined with Roman's
winch. We also did another first - a dual aerotow (two gliders, one
towplane) for a demonstration aerobatics program.

Many people said the same thing - we didn't know that your club was
here or gliding was such a cool sport.

Since then, we have added five new members, two or three more than we
would typically expect. We currently have around 120 members and are
shooting for 150, a goal we expect to meet within the year.

Even better than adding new members, the Open House brought our
existing membership together and we had just a fantastic club weekend.

Pilots are invited to come and experience our wonderful club for
themselves - guest members are always welcome - or just sign up for
Region 9 South, which we are hosting next May.

We also aim to become the number one US cross-country site next year
(at least on OLC score)

Mike
