Somebody, please make this happen. It seems that Socal is more active in this area of GTGs and events and shows, etc. Sunday sounds like a good day...

...I'm all for 9/9/07. May I also add to the list Fort Funston in SF - lots of parking and nice ocean view - that's if the microclimate of fog and drizzle doesn't prevail.

When the breeze is right there will be up to 15 hang-gliders launching themselves from the cliff and, after ascension, will usually glide over the appreciative crowd that awaits below.

Very serene...

Sounds like a plan, though, I may not make it to the treasure island meet at 1030 coz of church. Definitely I'll make it to Fort Funston around noon.

Please add your name to the list! I'm excited to meet everyone, and show the rest of the .org all the great photos from this event; Proving that Nor-Cal is inhabited by the most awesome NB Enthusiasts in the entire universe! (...and It's about time we had a GTG this year!)
