Sounds like fun. Is there somewhere nearby to hang a 27' Airstream for a couple of nights?
Don't need hook-ups, just a space.

SO much fun yesterday!
We must have had about a dozen folks out, 9 Revs, 3 dual lines and a single line... Wind was pretty decent all day, great weather.
Thanks to Ken for the coffee and pastries, nice touch.
Hope to see some of you out there again today.

My thanks to everyone who participated yesterday at Delta. I usually fly alone, but having such a great, supportive group really added to the fun. Also, with the patience of John, our team fly taught me a lot.
I strongly vote for having a festival the week after WSIKF. I also support the idea of offering some instruction to new flyers, especially kids.

I'll second that-- it was great to meet everyone! I definitely learned a lot more flying with all you than I would have on my own! Hope we can make this a semi-regularily occurring event in the future.

Aye, definitely want to make a semi-regular habit of this... Trick for me, the amount of travel I have through the year.
I'm hoping for at least a couple of weekends out flying at Delta Park every month from here until the 2011 season starts.
