I would just like to take the opportunity to wish all our club members and our wider reader audience a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. I appreciate that this Blog is read by many individuals across the entire globe including Australia and Japan, some have even made contact with me regarding various gliders.
The weather has not been great this past year but the Club is thriving, we now have some 53 members which is an increase of more that 20% from the start of the year and I continue to receive enquires from potential members.
We held the Club Annual General Meeting (AGM) last month which was well attended and many interesting points were raised. Many of these will be taken forward by the Committee for further consideration. It was good to see the members without the need for hats, gloves and seven layers of clothing. After the meeting some members enjoyed a sociable meal and had the opportunity to chat about all sorts of things including slope soaring.
We as a club look forward to 2025 and I do hope the weather is kinder to us and we can enjoy the warmer days of Spring and Summer and the fantastic views across the South Downs National Park.
All the very best to you all.
Tony Crawford
Secretary
Slope Soaring Sussex
