St. John Fly-in - August 2nd and 3rd

The annual St. John fly-in, hosted by Sonoma Wings, will be held on Sat. and Sun., August 2-3.

As in years past, there will be a distance task on Saturday and a defined task on Sunday, with goal at the BBQ.
Hang gliders will launch from the top of St. John, and paragliders will launch from Potato Hill. There will be
separate tasks for HG and PG.

There will be T-shirts, prizes, and a great BBQ for all pilots who enter.

The cost for all this fun? A measley $35 bucks. Extra T-shirts or dinners will be $15.

If you haven't attended one of these St. John fly-ins, ask around and you'll learn that it can be a lot of fun at
a great XC site. Saturday night camping can be done at Letts Lake, Dixie Glade, East Park Reservoir, on top of St. John,
or any other place your familar with.

Visit the Sonoma wings site to learn about St. John: where to launch, where not to land, etc.
