The Opening Ceremony was held on time "this afternoon at 7 PM," in the words of the Director of the Championships. It was quite chilly, so instead of marching with our flags around the town square, it was decided that we would march into the town sports center from just outside the front door. It was much warmer indoors.
After welcoming speeches by the mayor, the president of the Otto Ballod Club, and the president of the Argentine Gliding Federation, the Championships were officially declared open by Angel Casado of FAI. After that we were entertained by the local dance troupe.
