Great idea I think, maybe it would be good if it could be run at other places too.
"Kiteboard for Cancer" is a great initiative - esp coming from an individual kiter.
WAKSA has been contacted directly by the organiser of this event. At our June meeting we resolved to run a 'Kite for Cancer' downwinder on a date, hopefully, to coincide with Bens event in SA. We also offered to use WAKSA resources to cross promote both events, as well as the cause.
The Choice Xmas Course Racing event last season introduced WAKSA to Redkite - a charity centred around "Kids with Cancer" which has also approached us for support in the past. As part of last months resolution WAKSA is now investigating the potential of a formal, ongoing sponsorship agreement of 'Redkite'.
