Jackson Hole Free Flight Club will double your donation!! Please
do it now!!

While we are all taking this time to renew our club membership I would like to
take a second to please ask all of you to consider making another donation to
the USHPA RRG fund. I think we all know that if we lose our USHPA insurance we
will lose Baldy as a site. I don’t know about you , but that is unacceptable in
my world.

Please take a minute and think about how valuable flying off Baldy is to you. If
we were to lose the privilege, wouldn’t you feel foolish for not taking the time
to donate $100 when it would have been effective.

I know some people do not agree with USHPA or the way our insurance is run, but
not making a donation is not an effective protest on that front. The only thing
that will happen if this fund driving campaign does not go thru is we will lose
our flying privilege on Baldy. If you feel strongly enough to get involved with
USHPA please do so, but don’t sit on the sidelines and bitch.

I have also heard some other people say ‘I though free flying was supposed to be
free’. WTF!! Is your gear free? Are the club dues free? Is a ride up the hill
free? If USHPA loses it’s ability to provide us with insurance all of that will
be worthless because we will lose our main local flying site.

So friends, pilots, people PLEASE take some time and make a donation. Think how
valuable flying off baldy is to you. Give as much as you possibly can. The
continued privilege of flying off Baldy is at least as valuable as a maneuvers
clinic or contest entry fee, I think it is at least as valuable as a flying
trip, or a piece of new gear. The fun we have flying off Baldy is way more
valuable than a night of dinner and drinks. Every bit counts!!! Please make your
donation today, and then start talking with your friends and make sure they make
a donation too. If this fund driving campaign is unsuccessful I think it is fair
to say we will all be screwed.

Donations can be made here:

Finally if this fund drive is not successful you can get your money back.

Thank you for your time, please feel free to forward this to anybody else you
think will help.
