Saturday 28th May - Open weekend

After the lovely balmy sunny evening yesterday, Saturday dawned rather grey and with one eye on the rainfall radar image we set up the field for a strong westerly wind. Visitors for trial lessons started arriving just before 9:00am and a steady stream continued until 5:00pm. There were a couple of short breaks for lowering cloudbase and drizzle, but we flew 58 visitors with the ridge working all day. Several new members were signed up for quarterly membership. The happy but tired club members retired to the clubhouse to enjoy a carvery.
