In the overall scores, Dave Kornberg is at the front of the pack at the
end of five rounds for the first day at Spring Fling 2008. And he's
leading with a 2-meter ship, no less.
I was walking down the landing area and heard Jim Sneed counting down
for Dave as he lined up for a landing.
So far, young Ben Wright from Thousand Oaks California, is the only
Junior entry in Spring Fling 2008.
Kinda makes him the heir apparent for a First Place trophy in the
Junior class this weekend.
The final day for entries is tomorrow. If you've just now got your
kitchen pass for this 2-day
Spring Fling is only three weeks away. The dates are June 21 22nd.
Some frequencies are already sold out. No entries will be accepted
after June 17th. Complete details:
