Red Kite Downwinder POSTPONED

Unfortunatly due to circumstances beyond our control we have had to postpone the Downwinder till March 2013



The Event is still happening and we are working hard behind the scenes to secure a date in earlt March

no set date , be surprised if it will get run . i hope it does and i will have money coming in but i am not going to put up a fundraiser until i know the event is happening .

I'll be in this if its on!

...But I don't want to start raising funds if its going to change or be cancelled.........

They care enough to red thumb, but not enough to make any real contribution to the discussion.

@Jimjones (and anyone else in the same boat)
I've wanted to do this downwinder since I started kiting, but this year now that I am able, I've resigned myself to the fact that it's probably not gonna happen for me, either due to the date being pushed back so far that the wind will be a no show, and the latest date change conflicts with something else I already am committed to attending.

Regardless of this, the fundraising is for a worthwhile cause, so I'll be pushing ahead and getting as many donations as I can, whether the event goes ahead or not and whether I can do it or not.

Now, if the donations weren't going to a charity, then I would agree with you.

Red thumb away chickens

Righto, I'm in. I'm signed up.

The rest of you, pile in! Nothing to lose here and a great cause to boot.
