Group events are intended for when someone (member or non-member) wants to bring along a group of people (e.g. work colleagues, relatives etc) to experience gliding.
It’s for a minimum of 6 and a maximum of 12 persons and the cost includes 12 weeks free membership except youth groups, such as schools, scouts etc – however they do benefit from a further £10 discount.
The free membership term enables you to free flying instruction alongside regular members at member rates whenever we are flying.
For all group bookings, please call Pete Desmond on 07702 846 123 to discuss your requirements and availability.
How does it work?
The group lead contacts Pete, agrees a date, manages the process with the group, and the group comes along to fly.
The lead organiser is responsible for collecting the money and paying it to the club before flying takes place.
Sessions are generally available on Tuesdays and Thursdays from around 5pm until sunset, from the first Tuesday or Thursday in May (whichever is the earliest) to the last Tuesday or Thursday in August (whichever is the latest) when sunset is too early to run effective events outside of these dates.
On an exceptional basis, the club may occasionally be able to offer day sessions on non-club flying days (Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays)
