45th anniversary meet not in USHPA calendar

I'm sorry to say, that even though I submitted to Hang Gliding & Paragliding Magazine the notice about our 45th Otto anniversary hang gliding meet, to be held on May 22nd, in plenty of time it did not appear in their calendar of the March / April issue. :x

It could be that the U$hPa sees this event as too much of a US Hawks and (only) hang gliding event to want to publicize it in their mainly PG and Speed Wing magazine.

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . :roll:

:think: . . . . :idea:

I'm picturing a bus, . . . in which hang glider pilots are required, . . . to sit in the back.
