NSW South Coast & Canberra Kiters Season Opener BBQ

To kick off the South Coast and Canberra chapter of the NSWKBA, we're putting on a BBQ on Saturday the 29th of September, the October long weekend, from 12 noon.
At North Broulee Beach, but if the wind is Southerly an alternative venue will be arranged.
Everybody is welcome, you'll be able to sign up for membership of AKSA for the 2007/2008 season.
I realise the South Coast covers a huge distance of coastline, basically from Nowra to the border at Eden, we'd love to meet some kiters from other parts of the coast down here.
Laurie, if you could arrange a nice 15-20 knot NE'rly that'd be much appreciated.

It'd be great to get an idea of how many to expect, so I know how many sausages to buy, RSVP here or by PM.

Hey mate, I'm moving to Canberra in mid-November and am keen to get some kiting in at the Sth Coast over summer.
Missing Perth's summer will be a bit of a bummer but the Sth Coast is much less crowded. I used to live in Canberra almost 10 years ago and visited the beaches around Broulee almost every weekend there was decent weather (not for kiting back in those days).

I'm keen to meet up with some Sth Coast kiters and get as much water-time as possible over the summer.

(PS: Be warned, I am a wind jinx)

If the forcast is any good for the day,ill make the trip down

Good point.Oops

I've got the date wrong, the BBQ will be on the Saturday of the October long weekend, 29th September.
Is that when you're coming down Dave?

Thanks for pointing that out!

het skinner if there is any swell around i usually head up to gerroa . cross off down the line . usually more wind and more consistant than broulee as well . can be worth extra half hour on the road . ive got a good boss and can usually head down when its windy

Excellent. Sounds like I'm gonna enjoy my move to Canberra.
Thanks for the (OT) replies.

Hope the BBQ goes well.

oh yeah Toby...Me, the missus, the rugrat and 2 friends will be attending, plus i'll try and get Keith,Todd and Ben from Canberra down

Well the long range forecast has got green NE arrows, not that that means anything, but it's a good enough reason for a BUMP.

LAST MINUTE CHANGE OF LOCATION

The weather forecast doesn't look good for kiting, gently Westerlies, but the BBQ is still on, it will be at Shelley Beach, Moruya Heads, where there are Public BBQ's, Toilets etc.

You know me Lovey, the Bangers will be gourmet. Coopers Pale?

Pity about the wind, but it should be a nice day at the beach, and a chance to get more out of your AKSA membership than a tag to hang on your harness.

Yeah great, you didn't miss much kiting wise, but the BBQ was fun.

It's time to renew memberships with NSWKBA, when you sign up, you can choose to receive information about SCCK events. There will be another barbie, probably in December.

Kiting "on the lake", you mean Burley Griffin? Or land kiting on Lake George?
