"A Family Tradition for 125 Years" Epsom News by Jean Jeffery oa Sa SI Sa RRR The children from our school had a fun filled evening at Greenbank School one evening last week when they played a volleyball game with Durham's finest. I think a lesson in re- spect and co-operation was well learned. The officers won! The Social Club had a splen- did time Saturday evening and a bountiful dinner. Not so many present as so many otherwise engaged. The two McKay boys joined us and were wonderful guests. Grandma and grandpa brought them as mother and dad had to go to the Holstein Banquet. The Sunday School skating party was a happy affair also. There were about 30 there. The rink was big enough so some could play hockey at one end while other skated at the other end. Thanks to the Slack's for hosting the party. The children really enjoyed the doughnuts and cocoa. Don Asling and Stella visited their son Jerrold and his wife Joan on Thursday. The UCW will meet at the home of Clara Jones March 10 at 1 p.m. All ladies please come and enjoy dessert with us. Sunday, March 1, Rev. Wm.

"(We) have taught between 6,000 and 7,000 people to fly," he said. There are many types. of launches in hang gliding, The one used on Lake Scugog is the Intermediate/Boat Tow Launch. For basic graduates or Cana- ~ dian/US rated flyers, the towing course provides proper instruc- tion for handling 500-foot re- -leases. The course consists of three hours of advanced ground school theory and eight hours of flying sessions. Beginner courses contain 35 hours of combined classroom and field instruction. They are packaged in three-day weekend camps or five-week sessions. There are about 300 sites in Ontario that hang gliders use. Basic flight can be launched from any clear 25-foot hill or ridge. Although beginners may only reach 2,000 feet in the air, expe- rienced hang gliders can fly for hours and gain altitudes of up to 5,000 feet. The current world records are 170 miles in distance, duration is 28 hours and the altitude recordis 40,000 feet. The sky really is the limit in hanggliding.
