The dates are May 11 to the 18th. <br/> Thats a Sunday to Sunday, but don't panic Monday the 19th is a holiday.<br/> <br/> <B>The Meet:</B><br/> This is a class "B" meet with race to goal task. Flying over the Alberta Prairies and sometimes even into Sasckatchewan. <br/> It is a Hang Gliding tow competition, but Paragliders are more then welcome to come and join in the fun. <br/> Paragliders will not be scored unless they can organise their own score keeper etc. <br/> Pilots are divided into 3 classes, those that are ready to fly their first 50 mile flight, those looking forward to their first 100 mile flight, and open class. <br/> Then there's the Paragliders, they are in a class of their own.<br/> Most pilots camp at Double Dam golf course, where we have our pilot meetings in the mornings before driving out to the tow roads. They are a 20 to 25 minute drive from Double Dam. <br/> <br/> You will need to bring a gps with downloadable track log. If you have a unique instrument please contact myself, Ross Hunter or Doug Keller to check if we have the appropriate cables. <br/> If you have a cable that came with your instrument, you should bring it. You will also need a tow bridal and Harness. John Janssen is a good source for these items.<br/> <br/> <B>The Site:</B> <br/> The meet is based out of the Double Dam golf course. They have camping, hookups, showers, club house with restaurant and bar service. <br/> For camping, if you would like hookups and a picnic table you should contact them and book a site. <br/> See the side bar for link. Let them know you're a glider pilot and they will take care of you. <br/> If you're fine camping without hookups and a picnic table there will be room in the group camping area. <br/> Double Dam is located at N52.46.57 and W112.45 dd.mm.ss. There is also lots of Hotels and BnB's in Camrose, about 30 minutes away.<br/> <br/> <B>Registration:</B><br/> You will need your HPAC membership and foreign pilots will need a temporary membership. Fees are $65 before April 15th and $80 after April 15th. <br/> This does not include tow fees, retrieval or camping. <br/> If you would like to pay early you can email the fee to Ross Hunter at the "contact us" link or 2hunters at telus dot net or mail a cheque to Ross Hunter at 6019 - 34 Street SW, Calgary, AB T3E 5L7 Canada.<br/> <br/> <B>Towing: </B><br/> As you probably know this is a tow meet. We use a variety of pay out systems. <br/> Pilots are encouraged to organize themselves into teams of 4 or 5 pilots and a tow system. <br/> Each team is responsible to set up its own launching order; find an operator for their tow system; and pay the owner of the tow system tow fees. <br/> If no tow operator is found, a member of the team can run the tow system and will be scored his/her average score for the day. <br/> One should try their best to gain some pay out towing experience before coming to the meet.<br/> <br/> Nice shot of Camrose, thanks to Stuart Cobbledick<br/> <br/> <IMG src="https://sites.google.com/site/milesinmay2011/_/rsrc/1362540170315/photos-from-past-mim/P5200125.jpg?height=300&width=400"><URL url="https://sites.google.com/site/milesinmay2011/_/rsrc/1362540170315/photos-from-past-mim/P5200125.jpg?height=300&width=400"><LINK_TEXT text="https://sites.google.com/site/milesinma ... &width=400">https://sites.google.com/site/milesinmay2011/_/rsrc/1362540170315/photos-from-past-mim/P5200125.jpg?height=300&width=400</LINK_TEXT></URL></IMG></r> {/XML} in /home/davisstraub/public_html/davisstraub/OZ/forum/vendor/s9e/text-formatter/src/Renderer.php:48 Stack trace: #0 /home/davisstraub/public_html/davisstraub/OZ/forum/vendor/s9e/text-formatter/src/Renderers/PHP.php(303): s9e\TextFormatter\Renderer->loadXML('<r><B>Miles in ...') #1 /home/davisstraub/public_html/davisstraub/OZ/forum/vendor/s9e/text-formatter/src/Renderer.php(78): s9e\TextFormatter\Renderers\PHP->renderRichText('<r><B>Miles in ...') #2 /home/davisstraub/public_html/davisstraub/OZ/forum/phpbb/textformatter/s9e/renderer.php(250): s9e\TextFormatter\Renderer->render('<r><B><s>[b]</s...') #3 /home/davisstraub/public_html/davisstraub/OZ/forum/includes/functions_content.php(600): phpbb\textformatter\s9e\renderer->render('<r><B><s>[b]</s...') #4 /home/davisstraub/public_html/davisstraub/OZ/forum/viewtopic.php(1800): generate_text_for_display('<r><B><s>[b]</s...', '8thz5sqb', '', 2, true) #5 {main} thrown in /home/davisstraub/public_html/davisstraub/OZ/forum/vendor/s9e/text-formatter/src/Renderer.php on line 48
