Hello Everyone Just a brief update on the GP.
. John (Butch) Buchanan has agreed to take on the role of Contest Director - congratulations and thanks Butch! . Beryl Hartley will be the Referee. (Beryl organized the previous GP at Narromine) . Bruce Taylor has agreed to be task setter. (He has promised not to send everyone off into the East hills!!) . Heath L'Estrange has agreed to undertake the scoring and setting up of the website. Thanks to each of these generous people prepared to give up their time to make a viable GP for us at very short notice. Lake Keepit are offering their on-site cabins for competitors accommodation during the GP, first to book gets them but they should be able to accommodate everyone. Please contact Lake Keepit club directly. We have over 7 confirmed entrants so far and there is still a lot of opportunity for you to fly in a very exciting style of competition. It really is a lot of fun and I encourage all of you to enter asap.

Subject: [Aus-soaring] 18m Australian Qualifying Grand Prix -Lake Keepit March 19th - 25th 2011 Due to the continuing poor weather in Queensland the decision has been made to move the 18m Australian Qualifying Grand Prix venue from Boonah in Queensland to Lake Keepit in NSW and run it the week immediately preceding the NSW State Comps (to be held at Lake Keepit). Lake Keepit will provide a spectacular venue for the Grand Prix and you are encouraged to apply for a spot in the competition. Entrants are limited to a maximum of 20 aircraft and the top two placings are guaranteed an entry to the FAI World Grand Prix. Expressions of interest should, in the first instance, be emailed to Ross McLean at <mailto:[email protected]> [email protected] we will then get back to you and advise further entry requirement details. We hope to have the web site operational asap. If you had previously entered in the Boonah GP please just reconfirm your entry with me, your entry fee will stand or you can have an immediate full refund if desired.
