WV Wave Camp at W99

There is a fantastic Wave Camp coming up Feb 21 - Mar 8, at the Grant
County Airport in Petersburg, WV. I have attended a number of camps at
this site, and can attest to the high quality of the soaring
conditions, the site and the hosting. I will be flying my Lambada
motorglider to W99 for the camp. There will be several regional
soaring clubs and numerous private pilots and ships, along with
multiple tow plans at the camp. This is a fabulous wave and ridge
soaring site, at a beautiful location, and one of the best camps in
the east. Here is their announcement and links to their web site:


Winter 2009 Wave Camp has been confirmed at Grant County Airport (W99)

21st through March 8th, 2009, weather permitting.

Look for the latest wave outlook and flight reports to be posted on
the weblog (visit wave99.info and click on News, or go directly to
