The IHLF event put on by the Torrey Pine Gulls has always been regarded as the premier event in HL. Unfortunately the European contingent does not travel to the U.S. We could put on the greatest F3K event and it just won't draw the numbers. In the U.S. we are used to travelling long distances to compete. In Europe they drive. It is very rare to fly to an event in Europe. In addition the LSF has figured it out. A week long event that attempts to cater to all of the soaring contingent. IMHO they do a great job. Glider camp. I wish I was there. Jim McCarthy
