Site reports
Palomar:
Call Pala Security every time you fly at Palomar. Call Smiley every time you MIGHT launch there. Never assume someone else did it for you. Put the brush back over the entrance to the Smiley trail before you launch or leave. Palomar Site Guide has been updated as of 6-20.
Blossom:
The LZ at Blossom is still closed. Do not land there. Side hill land anywhere on the face, its easy and good practice for XC out landings. Students are welcome, so long as they follow the rules, as above, and instructors take responsibility for where they land. Students can side hill land.
Site Guide for Blossom has been updated as of 6-18.
Little Black & Otay: Site Guides have been updated as of 6-20.

Gary gave a great talk, with some incredible historic photos and video, on the unique and central role San Diego has played in the development of unpowered flight (and thereby flight itself).
Cheers,
