We were up for the Willi 2010 to be at the usual dates. However, the HPAC comp comitee had a bid for the PG nat during the same time and decided to push for it. It was supported by HPAC BOD. Consequently, the Willi 2010 is pushed back one week i.e. July 16/17 to 24. Sorry for the inconvenience. Hope to see you all the same!

May Long weekend
x-Alps fundraiser fun and x-country competition

The road to Mt. Swansea will already be open so let's do some flying.

We will have a little fun competition and a fundraiser for the x-Alps 2009 team (Max & Penny).

There will be a party held at Frank's "mansion", with a live band and a presentation from Max.
Camping/accommodation will be available at Frank's and Max & Penny's place.

The National paragliding won't be interfering with the Willi 2009 after all. So the Willi 2009 dates will be held Jul 24 evening to August 2 evening as was previously discussed. These dates will hopefully be kept for all future years.
Le national parapente n'interferera pas avec le Willi 2009 après tout. Le Willi 2009 se tiendra donc du soir du 24 juillet au soir du 2 août comme il fut discuté précédemment. Ces dates resteront, espérons-le, pour les années futures.
