However, I'm sure that the older gliding members of the Horsham Flying Club (formerly the Wimmera Soaring Club) would be best placed to assist. Several of their members would have been around at that time. Max Hedt comes to mind as a mine of historical information for that area. I'll email him and suggest he talks to you if he has anything to contribute.

I have sent him the relevant articles from AG Ann My name is Geoff Langsworth, I live in Edenhope and I am the Secretary of the Edenhope and District Historical Society. I am researching the former Edenhope Glider and Sailplane Club that was formed in Edenhope on 27th April 1953. A " google " search located entries for Edenhope on the Waikerie Gliding Club's website for Australian Gliding , August 1953 page 11 and December 1953 page 24. Finding these entries , I then searched the old newspapers for Edenhope around August 1953 and found an article regarding the formation of the club. I have attaced a copy for your information. The club existed for some years before disbanding but I do not know the date or year. I am wondering if you have any records showing the date the club disbanded ? Hoping you can help me with my enquiry. Regards Geoff Langsworth Edenhope, Victoria. _______________________________________________ Aus-soaring mailing list [email protected] To check or change subscription details, visit: http://lists.internode.on.net/mailman/listinfo/aus-soaring [1] ------------------------- Email sent using Optus Webmail Links: ------ [1] http://lists.internode.on.net/mailman/listinfo/aus-soaring
