At this point, Jonathan is the only tow pilot signed up to tow June 23 – 29 for the Region 8 contest and the following week July 1 – 6 at the junior XC academy. Is there anyone else out there willing to tow either or both of those weeks? There are a couple of ways this can work:
We definitely need two tow planes & pilots at a minimum for each event, and we absolutely need three for the contest and maybe even for the junior XC academy.
Thanks!

That’s awesome! Thanks Jim. Let David Reusch know as well. He and Tony are keeping track.

We have two things overlapping here:
So we technically have our junior camp tow needs met, but if we end up with more adult glider pilots, we might need a third tow pilot. And I am just trying to be helpful here on Noel’s behalf for the week before that—and I do not know where else to communicate about this. I do not want to go get an HRS tow pilot on the hook—and then have to cancel him. And since it is somewhat tricky to cancel a SignUp Genius entry, I figured I should ask here first before Jonathan signs up for the Evergreen tow pilot slot for the junior camp week.

Agreed, Doug.
I am taking 100% responsibility for getting tow pilots for my junior camp; I am posting here just in case tow pilots may be monitoring this group and in case having Jonathan fly the Evergreen tow plane will work—thus opening a spot (that I will have filled) for another HRS tow pilot.
And—as noted—just trying to keep a bit of tow pilot search momentum going here in this discussion on Noel’s behalf (since I am the ops manager for that event, and the ground crew will be run even more ragged if we are short on tow pilots!).
