11th of December at the Grange Sailing Club will see the inaugural SAKSA charity day. We would love to bring not only the kiting community together but also the Stand up Paddlers and the windsurfers, the more the merrier !
Kicking off with entries at 10am the Stand up crew will head off at 10.30am for a downwinder to the Chicken Shop. We are hoping to have hire boards available for those who don't have their own. Prizes for 1st in mens, womens and juniors but more importantly the big prizes are for best dressed and best dismount. From Chicken shop we will be organising some trailers and cars to shuttle everyone and their boards back to the sailing club.
A bbq lunch for all entrants will be provided at the sailing club- during this time there will be some beach games as well to keep everyone busy (beach cricket, volleyball and a round robin tug of war- maybe even some SUP relays)
Once everyone is fed hopefully the breeze will have kicked in and the kiters and windsurfers should get their chance. Windsurfers will see a prize for first place, biggest stack and best dressed, Kiters again get prizes for first place, the best dressed and the hardest wipeout. Once again we will have cars and trailers at Chicken shop to ferry everyone back.
Hopefully all being good we will be wrapping everything up around 5pm. With Christmas so soon entry is a wrapped gift to the value of $10 to be donated to underprivileged children and a $10 minimum donation to the nominated Charity. So for $20 you get a fun day, a bbq lunch and that bit of satisfaction from giving something back- awesome !
If you have any questions about the day or would like to help out and get involved please pm us.
Thanks
SAKSA Committee.
Hi all,
Just to clarify some of the finer details-
Suppers will still be going at 10:30, we will be asking some of the kiters and windsurfers to help with picking up the sup crew.
Lunch will be at 12pm- sausages are free for entrants and there will be gourmet burgers available for $5. The sailing club will be selling drinks and if you want somewhere out of the weather we are welcome upstairs as long as we don't track sand all through the place.
At 1pm we will be looking to send the wind junkies off on their downwinder and hopefully the sup crew can help ferry them back.
A quick wrap up once everyone is back to hand out some prizes and finish the official side of things.
Entry fee is $10 and a $10 present for an underprivileged child. ALL money raised will be split between the Cancer Council and Guidedog Association, presents will be donated to the Salvation Army.
Forecast looks amazing so feel free to get down early and ride out the front of the sailing club but please be mindful of avoiding the sailing course.
Any questions post them up or PM us.
Cheers
SAKSA crew.
