Default LVVSA SPRING 2013 AUTO TOW EVENT

The date has been set for the weekend of 20/21 April (weather permitting) for
the LVVSA Spring Auto-Tow event. Nothing looks threatening in the forecast so
far.
The location is Roach dry lake, off Interstate 15 just north of the
California/Nevada
border. Directions can be found on the LVVSA.org website (click the 'Safaris'
tab).
Auto and Aero tows, great fun, great food!
Auto-tows are fun, even when conditions don't support soaring. After flying,
there will be lots of good food* (potluck), a roaring fire, sacrifices to the
lift dogs, and general camaraderie. I think this year we may try a mass launch
of Chinese Sky Lanterns.
A $10.00/day LVVSA guest membership will be required (must be an SSA member),
and
auto-tows will be $10.00 each. The Pawnee will also be available for aero tows
at club rates.
Lots of other activities are welcome. Kites, model rockets, RC planes,
sailcars, and kite buggies have all been enjoyed at one time or another in the
past. Sometimes Dan Wrobel brings his telescope for a special evening treat.

*There's always too much food. Bring a big appetite!
