32nd annual Lakeside Splashdown Event
Submitted by Max Fanderl on Fri, 03/07/2008 - 08:14.The 32nd Annual Lakeside Event promises to be yet another exciting edition of Canada's longest running light aviation meet. This fly-in is great fun for spectators and pilots alike. Hang gliders and Paragliders take off from Mt. Swansea and descend to targets on the beach and in the water beside the Lakeside Pub on beautiful Lake Windermere. There is also a aerobatic contest for Paraglider pilots above Lake Windermere.
Relax on the beach, participate in beachside gatherings, parties and general fun.
