The SSB is run by a dedicated group of volunteers. Please consider offering your efforts as a manager of a task.

After a recent windstorm damaged our trailers, the club is reaching out for three project managers.

1. To get the GROB 102 trailer back into serviceable condition. This will be relatively easy repair project.
2. To get the GROB 103 trailer back into service. This project needs frame straightening, sandblasting, new running gear and tow bar, painting and covering.
3. To mow, organize the trailer tie down bay, define the space with proper ropes, blocks and tiedown anchors.

All projects should be coordinated through the SSB Board of Directors. Send an email to: This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it
