The Moriarty OLC camp which will be held June 1 to 15. The flying in this part of New Mexico is at least as good as Nephi and the facilities are a whole lot better. There are five (count them, as in 5) powerful towplanes based at Moriarty, each of them well able to launch in comfort any fully-ballasted glider. No creeping over the fences with sphincter fully gripped! Real, long, paved crosswind runway.
On-line registration is now open on the SSA.org website. Organization set to help pilots of all abilities, from badges to records.

A member of our soaring club (Soaring Club of Houston) asked the question below. Her son William is a 9th grader and soloed at our club in 2014. Very sharp and motivated kid. Appreciate any leads or suggestions, recognizing that this is slightly off-topic as it's not limited to soaring.

"Can anyone recommend an aviation summer camp (does not have to be in Texas) or summer experience for William? There are so many out there, but many are very basic. He's learned so much with SCOH and so much on his own that I don't want him to be bored. He has such a strong interest in aviation, especially helicopters, that I'm hoping to find something to further educate and motivate him. Any thoughts/ideas would be awesome!"
