The next 10 days are so, are going to be CRAZY around here. From Thursday, until Sunday evening here at Loookout, there's the Women's Flying Festival. They may have some professional photographers working on the pictures for it, however, I will be around taking some shots for them, if they can use them. Mine wont be as good as theirs,only because of their equipment,haha, but mine will have alot of new and old friends in them ! Jen has been doing a great job with Lookouts website/blog. Check it out,,,something's going on around here! !

On Saturday at 6pm, we have our first pilots meeting for the Tennessee Tree Toppers Team Challenge. I don't know about anyone else thats involved with these, but I'm stoked ! I'm glad that I don't know what may happening during that time. What a great journey this is going to be!
Here's an update email from Ollie.


TTT Team Challenge is being held September 28TH thru Oct 4TH.
All TTT members are welcome to attend the seminars that are scheduled every nite, starting with Saturday nite. We won't have a seminar Tuesday September 30TH cause we want everyone to come to the midweek party at Cancun Mexican Restaurant on Broadstreet.
Cancun has a great Karaoke set up! We have the whole place for our private party.
We'll have a hang gliding parody song competition! Some of my singing friends from work will come and stop the suffering with their great performances. If you are brave enough to sing, bring it on! Rick #2 we need you! This is a DON'T MISS IT!! event!
We have some great talks lined up. Mike Barber is going to give his great XC decision making talk. Dennis Pagen is going to give a 'Scratchin' talk and assist with the launch and landing video clinics. Kevin Carter is giving a 'Getting Ready to Race' talk. Mark Stump is giving his great 'Assess the Day Before You Launch. Fly for Fun' talk. Jim Yocum is giving a 'Flying the Big Mountains' talk. Terry Presley is giving a 'Restricted Landing Field Approaches' talk. The Jeff's, Nate and I will do a quick overview of 'Weather Workups.' Lindsey Chew and Stan Roberts are doing a "How to Use SeeYou and Google Maps to review your flights.
Free flying will be encouraged before and after the Team Challenge launch window opens. During the competition launch window, free flyer launches will be allowed when there is a lull in the launch activity.
Hope to see ya there! Ollie
