The best way to find out more about the SSB is to visit the glider side (north) of the Boulder airport located on Independence Road. We usually operate every weekend and some weekday afternoons, weather permitting. By all means, feel free to stop by the field on any active day and introduce yourself. 

You can join the SSB at the airport. If there is flight activity an approved SSB Instructor or SSB board member its typically present and they can take your New Membership Application.

When you join the club you should receive a complete new member package outlining the SSB procedures along with documentation for each sailplane in the fleet. 

You can also reach out to the SSB's new member coordinator who will answer your questions about the club.

See you at the airport!

If you are coming to the airport you should bring: 

• hat
• sunscreen
• water bottle
• notepad

The SSB has several memberships types with benefits to meet your needs. Each type comes with different initiation fees and associated monthly costs. Tow fees vary with altitude.

You will need to get together with an instructor and schedule your initial flights. If you are new to flying you will begin your primary instruction under the watchful eye of the SSB instructor of your choice. If you are a transitional power pilot or licensed glider pilot you will need to schedule check rides with the SSB instructors in order to solo the club sailplanes.

You will also gain access to the club's email group where current advisories and information is typically circulated.
