Happy New Year Everyone
By xray on 1/3/2007 9:44 AM

One of my many resolutions is to pay more attention to IslandSoaring.com.  I think it could be a really great tool to get people more enthusiastic and involved in the Vancouver Island Soaring commmunity.

I'll need your help though.  Please post your phots, news, etc.  Remember, this is your web site.  I just keep it running.  You need to provide the content.

Happy New Year!
