Yuo will want to try to reach Mark Groshens at the Toronto Kite Fliers. He is listed in the phone book of Cambridge. I don't have his phone # on me right at the moment though. The club usually flies at Humber bay park (I think). It is the park located south of the 427 hwy (the one that begins at the Pearson Int'l Airport. They fly right at the edge of the lake just about every time there's wind. There are also regular flys in Kitchener at the Bingerman campground every third Sunday of the month (from memory). You may contact Ed Hummel in Kitchener or Hummel woodworking in Waterloo for more info... (I still don't have their phone # with me at the moment). But for buggies, your best bet is stil with the Toronto Kite Fliers. There are kiting events every weekend (and plenty to choose from) so look arround, and if you see or hear about kites, stop. Somebody will know how to reach the TKF club. Good luck and tight lines!

It is the park located This is not really the case anymore. Over the years Humber Bay has been the one site where we most often flew, but as the club has grown and dispersed it has become a base for only a few regulars. The best site in the Toronto area is Waterfront Park in Ajax. It's large enough to buggy in, have competitions, and also setup single line fields.
