That means that you don't have to wait for the weekend and drive 2-3 hours out of state to get you flying fix.
We are less than 1 hour from most of the western suburbs.  Therefore, you can come out before or after work midweek.    What a way to brighten up your day.  Coming out more frequently keeps you in top form.
We're Fun
On any weekend you can expect to see many old friends and meet many new ones.  
The flying is usually great, but when it isn't there's plenty else to do.

This place is great.  All I have to worry about is setting up my glider.  They take care of the rest.  The fast turn around times mean that I'm not stuck on the ground when conditions are booming.  I've had two 100 mile flights here, and I'm sure I'll have many more.
