Adrian Soaring Club - In July 1957, With Toledo Municipal Airport closing we, the Toledo Gliding Club, moved to Adrian and partnering with the Civil Air Patrol we formed the original Adrian Airport - becoming the Adrian Soaring Club (ASC) now at Lenawee County Airport, Adrian Michigan (ADG) 

We've heard their may be two other operating clubs in the world that have been running longer - but we'd love to hear from/about them?!  We also know our "younger brothers" at Harris Hill Soaring, near the museum and so much history, just turned 78 in 2015!
