GODDARD – At the Goddard Chamber of Commerce’s luncheon last week, executive director Angie Duntz reminded members that Goddard’s Amazing Race is now underway.

Suite 2, during normal of-fice hours: Mondays from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., Tuesdays from 9 a.m. to noon and Wednesday from 9 a.m. to noon.

Among the tasks are mixing a flavor at Tropical Sno and presenting a copy of The Times-Sentinel at the chamber office.

Visit www.goddard-chamber.net/goddarda-mazingrace.html for a full list, official rules and

online registration.Following the business

meeting and meal, Eric Eaton of KanOkla Net-works gave a presentation on his company’s services, including rural broad-band, graphic design and web development. KanOk-la offers wireless internet to the Goddard area via a line-of-sight tower at Tanganyika Wildlife Park. Visit www.kanokla.com for more information.

Goddard’s Amazing Race is underway

On Monday, Cheney children got an up-close look at a glider plane. Harry Clayton and Susan Erlenwein of the Wichita Soaring Association assembled the unpowered craft, a Schempp-Hirth Standard Cirrus, on the lawn outside St. Paul’s Lutheran School. The program was sponsored by the Cheney Public Library.

The children learned that gliders, also known as sail-planes, can stay airborne for hours on end, gaining altitude by maneuvering through columns of rising air called thermals. The minimum age to fly solo in a glider is just 14.

After the glider pilots’ pre-sentation, everybody got busy making paper airplanes.
