Another congratulations here to Chip Garner for winning the Nationals in an American made glider.

Tonight I had dinner with Ross Briegleb. Ross was the the first to win a Nationals in an American made ship, a Laister Nugget. It was 37 years ago at the U.S. Standard Class Soaring Championships, Minden.
