FYI:

We do not have an email system for discussions.But we all post to Williams Today and share our news through that system. See link on menu bar above to "Forum"

You will continue to receive a special VSA email from the VSA Officers via the "special VSA email list" when there is a need to send you info.

We do have a Google group on the web, and that is a place that allows any member to post stories, files, photos, etc.

We are using valleysoaring Google group as an active extension of these web pages. It seems to be working well. Take a look.

Since the Williams Today/ Forum is the primary system of communication, be sure to post a link on those pages if you choose to add any material to the Google groups pages.

Description of the VSA

The VSA provides a means for pilots to interact with each other, and the community in general. It's not enough for each of us to practice and demonstrate the refined skills that allow us to fly freely like an eagle, soaring for hours above the earth, and then returning confidently to the airport. As pilots, we enjoy talking to each other about our triumphs over nature, and sharing our recent discoveries in this infinitely variable, and endlessly challenging sport. We learn from each other, and enjoy hearing about flights by other pilots. The Valley Soaring Association (VSA) is composed of pilots, and friends of pilots, who enjoy sharing this wonderful sport.

The Association is hosted by William's Soaring Center (WSC), located in William's, California, about 45 miles north of Sacramento, along Interstate Highway 5. Although many pilots of the association fly from various gliderports throughout California and Nevada, we all have have a common interest in the William's Soaring Center.

Strictly volunteer, the Association is composed of annual average membership of 50 to 100 pilots. Members of this nonprofit association contribute their time and energy to maintaining the organization, newsletters and web pages.

We organize and promote various soaring events at William's, and the Officers of the Board of the VSA administer a Scholarship Fund, which has been awarded over a half-dozen times to High School Students in Northern California.

You are invited to visit the other pages of this web site to learn more about the Valley Soaring Association, and more about the sport of Soaring. If you share our love of Soaring and also have an interest in the operations at William's Soaring Center you are sincerely invited to join our Association. All new comers are welcome - experienced or not! Please use the following links as well as the tabs located at the top of this page.
