TOMKLU Posted July 17, 2014 Report Posted July 17, 2014 I'll be traveling to these two areas and was wondering if there might be someone in Ottawa that knows a good field. Also, looking to stop in the Chicago / Joliet area to assist cousin (new to kiting) with flying. Thanks Quote
Wayne Dowler Posted July 17, 2014 Report Posted July 17, 2014 suggest you look on the member map to see if anyone is near! Quote
TOMKLU Posted July 17, 2014 Author Report Posted July 17, 2014 Thanks Wayne. Was cruising the site from work and wasn't allowed access. I'll look again when I get home. 1 Quote
Wayne Dowler Posted July 17, 2014 Report Posted July 17, 2014 It also doesn't hurt to post here!! Just post the dates, times, etc, and see if anyone responds!! Quote
Tmadz Posted July 17, 2014 Report Posted July 17, 2014 There's a few of us in the west suburbs of Chicago, but I don't know anyone that's around Joliet (southwest of Chicago) offhand. Although I can always be persuaded if given a date you are planning to fly. More advance notice gives me more flexibility. I'm a little familiar with the area. Quote
TOMKLU Posted July 22, 2014 Author Report Posted July 22, 2014 Thanksgiving for the info guys. Travel dates keep getting pushed back. Near Chicago, i was looking for a field where i could teach my cousin and her husband how to fly their 2 line kite and show them the Rev. A little drive won't be bad for guaranteed wind. Quote
Tmadz Posted July 22, 2014 Report Posted July 22, 2014 Well down near Joliet, you'll definitely be close to farm fields. Corn is bad (too tall) soybeans are good. Quote
