Just a reminder to the newer members that the club does not really shut down for the winter. As long as the runway in good condition (i.e. not too wet and not too much snow) and the weather is acceptable, there may be a limited flying operation running on the weekends. Check the yahoo groups for updates.
Adding to the fun, this winter we have a winch on a field and we are now up to 109 launches over the 3 weekends in Dec and everybody is really enjoying it.
We are getting a pretty consistent 1100-1300 foot launches, with the best launches to 1600 which is pretty good for our runway.
Here are a few YouTube videos of early launches, more to come:
Enjoy and come out to fly!

On Sunday, New Year's Day there was a lovely gathering of SOSA members at the club-house. The fire was toasty, the conversation lively, Kim's mac & cheese was great. It was a great chance for those of us who can't make many of the fall/winter activities to say hello to friends.
The Great Fall Clean-up does not mean the end of the club for the year. Flying is still held when conditions permit, meetings still go on, plans are still made.
The New Year's gathering is long-standing annual event, open to new and long-time members. If you missed it this year, put it on the back burner for next year.

At the end of the season check out what might have taken up residence in your trailer.
Ants, wasps, mice, chipmunks, squirrels . . . . . .
