Just thinking out loud, but what does making it "senior" get you other
than excluding the interesting new guys in this contest? I don't know
of many hot west coast under 55 pilots who are going to burn up the
skies on long tiring 6 hour flights and leave you old guys in the
dust. Well, I gues P7 isn't 55 yet; just give him a personal handicap!

Why not run a super-regional instead? Same concept, more gliders, more
pilots, encourage young new people.

a Super Regionals in Parowan during Sept. of 2009? �I will come and I
am sure, many others will. Parowan, in early Sept. can be really great
with long cloud streets, high bases,10 plus kt. lift. Great idea and I
am thankful your coming forward to do it.
� � � BB, you aren't suggesting that "The Seniors" event in Florida be

that....my bad...sorry.

theirs interest to bring it back. That's all. A fun, end of season
contest, which will have guest's included. �BUT we can work around
your contest dates for your super regionals in Parowan during Sept.
2009. Just let us know the dates. Thanks, John, and yes, �we old guys,
