Introducing class of 2011 graduate Cody A. Brown

Cody graduated Friday night at a very nice ceremony at the Honeoye high school auditorium. Here are a few pictures from the ceremony and one special one I took while taking pictures for his yearbook. Not sure why he didn't choose this one I thought it was great!!!! Congratulations Cody, you-da-man.

Here is a link to a video by Chris Turner a student this year.
There was a work party called for Sunday at Mt. Washington and after many man hours of chopping, hacking and mowing the site looks great. Then it was time to play. Conditions were "textured" to say the least, Not everyone flew but a lot of people did and were rewarded with great flights. Skydog got 5+ hrs in two flights and Paul Senger 2hrs 15 min for a PB.
I only got a short flight but got a couple good climbs and worked on limbering up those flying muscles after not flying all winter. Should have gone for another as it wondered and they flew till dark.

Flights: 1
Air time: 24 min.
Max altitude: 3400'
Fun factor: 6
