Re: Climb A Mt Cancer Hike
We need at least four more team members before February 6th to ensure that we get customized t-shirts with the SAHGA logo on them.
This is an opportunity to keep our sport visible in a positive way within the city, so please consider joining the SAHGA team.

Re: Climb A Mt Cancer Hike
How was it today at A Mtn? I'm so sorry I couldn't make it. I got a call from My Sister about midnight last night, that our Mom, 86, had fallen, and had to be at E.R.
So, I spent the day with her in SunCity. She's doing very Well. I'm glad for that, but wish I had been in Tucson.
So, Eric, can you just put my T-Shirt in the mail? it's P O Box 21533, Mesa AZ 85277
Appreciate you guys.

Here's Eric soaring over the "A" after the hike. He got a big, collective "ooh" from the crowd with his takeoff, very nice:
