…The root of the problem may be that a pilot feels validated to park their gear if there is no immediate need for others to use their space for packing. The combination of shade and a clean surface is inviting for parking gear. They become a trend setter showing “it is OK to park here”. Conflict happens when the space is needed. …
I was a little curious as to why the PG’s get to fold up their $h!t in the shade near sunset ; and the HG’s have to sweat in the sun ? I guess , if your a PG pilot , that it appears perfectly reasonable ; I fly Both PG and HG , and it doesn’t appear reasonable at all to me !!!

LOL ; that was Funny !!!!

Really Cool design ; just makes flying safer !!

@ David
Grab my email off the club list ; I can give you the guy’s number. He seamed reasonable so probably get a better bulk price.

The cheapest option is used turf with logos (partial logos from sports fields) at $.70 a square foot. Looks like a rough guesstimate of the SW quadrant of the LZ is around 20,000 square feet, so comes out to $14k. Compared to the water cost, that seems to pay for itself in under 8 months.
EDIT :
Found out the service-life of a used baseball field with a soccer field combo, with minimum markings will be near 20-years. They want .68 cents a foot + shipping.
It’s in Bakersfield

A Big favor please :
I can not make the Sept 17 Board Meeting , and i would appreciate is someone could bring up a point that does affect everyone :
HG pilots that land just short of tied down gliders near the shade-structure, for no other reason than they don’t want to walk across the PG landing aria, after they land. I actually Lost a very nice flying Atos, because some lazy A$$ didn’t want to walk his glider back from the HG landing aria . Yea — he crashed into my Atos because he didn’t have the cognitive resources to determine that his abilities were not up to par, to attempt such a landing. This affects ALL pilots , (both HG and PG) and it is just down-right dangerous !!!
Thanks : Bille Floyd
Gene took rookie down to the 750; too windy for him there too. (Good decision to not fly.)
Gene took me to Regionals on Sept 7 , near sunset ; had a Great flight. Next
day it rained ; I left to Las Vegas .
Sure had a Great time ; hanging with you CSS Skanks !!!

We all have to be careful when relying on our memories, as studies showed humans adjust memories for personal comfort or to align with a social group.
Jerome is correct !
I view it like a bit of a spin-off from functional fixedness ; as it relates to a cognitive bias in problem solving .

The problem is, two weeks after you start it, you’ve forgotten the real content or why the heck you went there in the first place?

Some of you that think Linda is to be taken for a Fool ; ya might wanna
rethink your strategy .

Your access to free camping for Veterans at State parks is really great. The Board never discussed that accommodation but should. Thanks again.
I want to support CSS , (it’s a Great club) ; as a Vet, it would be Great if you gave me a 25 to 30% discount !! Maybe add 2% to the fee , because I’m also disabled ! LOL
Thanks : Bille
@ Jai
Not to start a fight ; I’d like to know what the board decided , what the amount for camping fees is ? It kinda affects Me . There are 2 State campgrounds within a 20 minute drive, that I can attend for free so if camping at CSS is more than $ 8 to $ 10 then I will say your being unreasonable and ya won’t get a dime from me.

“Camping fees were discussed and the board said $15/night, $75/week for absolutely NOTHING but port-a-potties. The membership suggested that cost was ridiculous and
the board did comparisons with full hookup RV/camping park with amenities and said it was a bargain to just park for less than $40 a night. …”
Somebody is full of $H!T !!!
Google search , camping fees for disabled Veterans in California state parks :
“The State of California offers special benefits for its military service members and veterans, including the Distinguished Veteran Pass, a no-fee lifetime pass that entitles users to the use of all basic facilities – including day use, boating and camping – in California state parks at no charge.”
And that comes with showers , and cooking grills !!
It is the reason I joined CSS ; so I can use the port-a-potties, running water, and grills, along with landing my glider on the CSS rented property.
BTW : I am a Disabled Vet
