Re-location of 2 Outstanding Members of Slope Soaring Sussex to Wales
I am sure that I speak for the entire membership of Slope Soaring Sussex. I would like to say a big thank you to Paul H who is re-locating to Wales next month. Since 2014 he has given outstanding service to the Club. He was a co-founder and has steered the Club through his leadership to what it is today with over 40 members. Paul was responsible for training, organizing most of the flying and almost all of the Blog content and videos. Paul's contribution cannot be understated therefore for his outstanding contribution to the Club he has been awarded Lifetime Honorary Member Status by the Club Committee. We all wish him and his family all the very best for their new future in Wales and we are all looking forward to a flying visit to Wales sometime in the future.
Although Ian A re-located sometime ago to Wales his outstanding service to the Club must not go unrecognised. Ian joined the Club a little later after it was formed but his contribution was again a very valuable one. Ian was a club instructor and the "Safety Officer", responsible for ensuring good flying practices at all times. Ian was very patient as an instructor and helped many of us improve our flying skills as did Paul. The Committee unanimously endorsed the motion to make Ian a Lifetime Honorary Member for his outstanding contribution to the Club.
Once again we as a club wish Paul and Ian and their families all the very best for the future. See you guys soon.
