The North Coast Soaring Association proudly presents the 9th annual
North Coast Glider Games 2021 edition.
April 29, 30, May 1, and 2, 2021
With the CoVid 19 still happening (Hope you’ve gotten your Vax) and restrictions easing, our social distancing and long distance friends will be joining us for wonderful time this year. I’m going to go out on a limb, (yes the one that my plane was stuck in) and say we will finally be able to congregate on the slopes of Northeast Ohio!
Thursday:
Travel day – come one, come all (we visit the slope sites and test the winds depending on the weather and join for food and beverages after sundown)
(See event locations below.)
Friday:
The event begins…
11:30a We travel to the slopes
Proper social distancing will still be observed.
The indoor fly is going to be at our new location. I guarantee it will be worth the trip!
7:00p Pizza Party & Indoor Fun Fly at One Smart Dog Facility.
271 W Greenwich Rd, Seville, OH 44273
What a great facility!
Saturday:
The event continues.
Open, Glider Games, Fun Fly – 11:00a
If winds are light we will head to our Lodi Field for power and winch. Hmm, power and winch, that sounds like a great name for a micro-brew!
7:30p Stay tuned for our Saturday Evening get together. We will have to see what fine dining will be open and available to us.
Sunday:
The Games continued!
Best regards,

Give a little info to go with the picture if you like. Your first name and the location at least, how long you have been flying RC….your club…, send the pictures with the Contact Button at the top of the page.

Just met several of the fine people from Slope Slayer/ GEMS (Don, Mike, Mike again and Jeff). If I forgot someone or messed up with the names please forgive.
Thanks for all the help and support. Hope to “sail” with y’all again.
