This page is a "work in progress", so come back often for updates.  Last update was on 08/06/2007

This Activity will be held at Owl Canyon Glider Port located north of Fort Collins, Colorado.  This is a private airfield belonging to the Colorado Soaring Association.  To see more information about this club, please review their website http://www.soarcsa.org    Our activities will be held in the same location as the Colorado Soaring Association, so you will have a chance to witness other glider enthusiasts in action.  All training flights will be aero tow, but to give everyone the “flavor” of ground launch, we will be giving winch demonstration flights.  These always prove to be most exciting.
