Evening all on the Exchange. Wanted to
get out the finalized Ohio Valley Soaring Series schedule for 2000.
There are a few changes from my first posting of this. As an addition this
year, SOAR in Chicago has joined the Series, and I have heard that many guys
from the SOAR area are coming out to fly OVSS. With the addition of the
SOAR contest, the Nats Unlimited contest has been dropped. There are seven
stops this year for OVSS. Scoring will stay the same as a pilots best four
weekend(one day of each of four weekends) scores out of the seven contests
will determine the winner. Tie breakers are the same as last
year.

You can look up info for all these contests off
links from the DARTS webpage @ www.dma.org/DARTS for the individual
clubs. Some very good news concerning the CSS Memorial Contest.
Tonight I talked with Ed Franz and he stated that, though it is not final, it
looks as though the Memorial will have a new sight where 360 degree flying
is on the table. The sight is at a state park in Kentucky just south of
Cincinnati proper. Three cheers for Ed's and Barry's efforts in upgrading
this event. Also notice that the Mid-American Championships is not
on it's traditional weekend because of problems with the park
folks.
After this I will be posting some LOFT information
and there will be more info about the Fall Round Up on that post.
