Hi guys, I have some very close mates, who's teenage daughter is fighting Leukemia at the moment, and they are really doing it tough.

I was sitting down last night thinking about what I could do to help them. They are just a regular fam that need some help in a really bad time.

So on the 19th of this month, I am going to do a 2 hour paddle course on Narrabeen lake. Although I am not a charity, and this wont be a official "event". If you want to join me, I thought of just having a $10 optional paddle fee, and all of it will go to Sam's parents to help them out. You are more than welcome to give more if you feel to.

I am going to invite Sam's parents down there, and her brother and sister as well.

It would be truely epic to get a good crew down there.

Let me know if you can make it, or if you would like to support them in any way.

Her mum's blog addres is girlonaswing.wordpress.com/

regards,
Pete

Great idea mate - every little bit helps..

I'd like to make a donation to you Pete. I'll send you an email and get some details from you of where to send it. If I lived down there I'd be there for the paddle.

Gday Pete,
My $10 is in your account mate and our prayers go out to Sam and her family,

Robbo

glad to give ten bucks to help a deserving cause,send details or set up a paypal thingy,

I am happy to throw in $10 , let us know how to get it to you.(I don,t care whether you paddle or not). Sounds like they could do with a lift.

Count me in Pete. My shoulder should be just about right for a bit of flatwater paddling by then and what a great cause for getting back on the board.

The Girls and I are in too,

Please send us some details to donate.
