Looks likely at end of November
Clashing with Merrimbula again?
Seemed to work with retailers steve, but happy to work around and with what people want
Have things gone cold on Geraldton Mick?
TBH, gero events didn't do a great deal, actually f all but I'll run through that with you, dongara irwin shire have been chasing to have the kite gig back in town, I wouldn't of minded horrocks this year tbh
It was never a plan to host it in the same venue, that way we keep it fresh and crew interested, dongara shire thus far have been very keen , thank god infigen energy helped us financially or I'd be looking at a hefty bill after the windfest,
It's on

Mick can we do the same downwinder as last year or are the logistics too hard??? I'm happy to pay extra coin for the bus etc.
I think the final nights after party should be at the surf club or the Hotel.

So where is it going to be Cauncy: Dongara or Gero?
I missed last year, but, I've pretty much got all of next summer off work. Am not going to miss it a second time.
Going to lock this one in early.

There's great dwinder from 7 mile to s end, imho the old kite stock cliffhead to dongara was gay , the proposed one has decent reef,waves, flatwater, shoreline, bump n jump conditions, we're working on a marquee on the grass outside with a band at slsc, bar n food, a coach will again provide transport, also a kite movie night at the drive in cinema, looking into a slalom race with obstacles along with the rest

I agree the old Epic DW was well over rated. Given what you did for the inaugral windfest Mick i know the event is in good hands.
To all the crew looking to attend there is a huge amount of work that goes into making these events happen. Support and a big ups to Mick and Crew. Thanks in Advance
