The USHGF, The Foundation for Hang gliding, and Paragliding,inc., was at Lookout Mountain Flight Park today, for their annual business meeting. All but two of the members were on hand to work all day on different projects and ideas. I will be adding a link the their website soon. Until then, the link is: http://www.ushgf.org/index.htm . They really help a lot of different people, in a lot of different areas, in the flying communities. Please check out their site. I have read about a lot of different sites that wouldn't be around today, if it wasn't for this charitable organization.

Bottom row: Mark Forbes, Russ Locke, Connie Locke, Doug Sharpe. Standing: Riss Estes, Matt Tabor, and Randy Leggett. Not shown: Bill Bolosky, and Steve Onstad.
