Default New Year's Day soaring?

Back in the "Good Olde Days", we used to fly nearly every Jan 1st in southern Michigan, frequently with plenty of snow on the ground, and sometimes in the air. Does anybody still do this? It only counts if it's difficult! Floridians need not apply.


Our Club in Chicago does a Chili Cook off and members take turns flying the 2-33 and 1-26. Sometimes we do landing contests. This year was 11 flights in the 1-26. Lots of little bumps at 1000ft.
