I know that LDRS 35 is in CA this year (since it is the first). Do they announce future locations beyond the current year?

Interesting. Thanks for all the info. That is really fascinating. Seems like it would be beneficial to have the sites picked at least 2 years in advance to allow for more pro time.
I doubt our club would even want to try and our top waiver has only been 44,000 feet which is way under what LDRS would want I am guessing.

You're thinking of BALLS. Unless ROC manages to get a higher waiver for LDRS, the maximum altitude at Lucerne is about 19,000 feet AGL (22,000 MSL).44,000 is good? I thought LDRS had over 100,000 feet.
Must LDRS be held during the summer month's.
We had a great time at LDRS33 which was held at "Bong" in Wisconsin. The waiver was 10,000 ft.
It is called "Paying It Forward".Honestly, the amount of work to pull an event like this off and the relative lack of reward (you get to see cool flights and lots of people, but the club membership itself isn't going to be enjoying much flying, if any) I really don't know why anyone hosts other than bragging rights.
I guess our club would have to do late spring or early fall to have a shot.

The one thing you need to have, above all else, to host LDRS is a thick skin. You will have no end to the people who will complain about some detail that annoys them. These people will expect a professionally run event - they paid and "deserve" it. It does not matter to them that it is being done part time by a bunch of folks with day jobs.
Or, "Thanks for volunteering to take that item."Just say, "I'm sorry, I don't recall seeing you at the planning meetings"
