Chelan Classic
Submitted by GoAdmin on Thu, 02/22/2007 - 12:53.The Chelan Cross Country Classic is scheduled for July 2nd through July 7th, at Chelan, WA. The Classic is a great meet for anyone that wants to learn or improve their XC skills. Unlike most competitions, pilots at the Classic choose their own task, and can fly straight line, out & return or triangles. Only your 4 best days of the 6 day event are scored. Like last year, we'll have 4 categories for Hang Gliders, and 2 for Paragliders, so even if you don't have the latest and greatest comp' machine, don't worry, you'll only be competing against similar wings.
Early Registration for the Classic is only $75.
