Saturday, June 6, 2026, 9:00am - 4:00pm
This is an F3L contest that will be open to any two meter glider that is mostly made of wood. Motors are not allowed. Due to the contest the field will be closed to normal member flying while the contest is ongoing. Roughly from 9 until 4.
If you've never entered a glider contest this would be the perfect time to start. Everyone is friendly and helpful. And entering a contest is a perfect way to hone your thermalling skills.

from 1 pm t0 3pm. No rain date.
