As many of you know, there is a project going on now to greatly expand the launch at Dunlap. This work is funded by the Foundation for Free Flight and a contribution from the Bay Area Paragliding Association. Connie Locke sent in earth movers a few weeks ago, which should open up the launch area for several gliders to set up at once.

There is other work to do: more clearing and brush removal, spreading of grass seed, and so on. This must be done before the rainy season ends and the ground becomes hard. That is why we are arranging for a work party the weekend of April 19. I’ll follow up in a bit to let everyone know what equipment to bring.

BAPA will contribute by arranging for cabins at the Sequoia Highlands, and to provide drinks and goodies. After the work is done we can fly!

Please let me know if you are coming so we can plan for enough food and other stuff. Dunlap is a wonderful flying resource and this work will make it even better.
