Join for this flying season
Membership gets you access to club facilities and flying privileges, includes your SAC membership, and helps keep the cost of flying affordable for all members.
1
Fill in the form.
We need everyone’s information annually to ensure club records are up-to-date.
2
Pay your fees.
Send your e-transfer to billing@gatineauglidingclub.ca, or you can pay by cheque.
3
Meet us at the club.
We operate most Saturdays and Sundays with sunny or partly cloudy weather and light winds. Parking at the clubhouse or Lacasse hanger. Meet at 9-9:30 AM at the hangers or flight line.
…and volunteer your time
Membership fees alone don’t keep a gliding club running. Everyone chips in and helps in their own way.
Gliding clubs rely on volunteers (members, past members, families) for operation; without them, the club couldn’t run.
Each member contributes at least half-day every 3-4 weeks during the flying season (April-October).
Beyond flight-line duties, members are encouraged to volunteer in other areas based on their interests and skills. Please indicate on your membership application form which areas you have interest and expertise in.
