Hi John,
It should be a very good omen, particularly for the farmers, tell them that
it is a sure fire way to make it rain by holding a gliding event.
They will keep asking you to hold more.
Best wishes to all at GVGC. May it be strong for the future.
Regards
Patch

Hi all,
Unfortunately the weather has conspired against us :-(
The Goulburn Valley Soaring Open weekend has been cancelled.
Too much rain. Great for the farmers, but bad for our field...
