I'd like to thank all the AHGPC members who came along this morning to Kario and helped out in the working bee. The combination of 6-wheel truck and Mustang skid-steer loader was extremely effective. Instead of placing one 10-ton load of 65 Slag, we ended up ordering in three truck loads of the stuff. We have now filled in the worst of the pot-holes on the track, so 4WD vehicles will find it easier to get up to the launch site over the coming flying season.

Thanks, guys!

Also bring spades and grubbers/mattocks to re-form the runoff drains as water is the biggest contributor to track deterioration. It would be good to see a better turnout of hang glider pilots who regularly use this site. The turnout to our last working bee here was dismal.

Cheers
