Who We Are
The CHGPA is an active club of around 100 pilots in the DC/VA/MD/PA region. We’re dedicated to the growth and safety of hang gliding and paragliding. We have monthly meetups and fly year-round at many sites within 2 hours from DC.
Join Us!
Members get access to CHGPA insured flying sites, up-to-date Google Site Guide, and email group. We revamped Woodstock launch Nov. 2016 and need your support to keep our flying sites open and safe!
