But there are a few locals will be keen to do something next year

Hey, anything happening with Andy's memorial downwinder (has it already been held??).
What about turning it into a charity event, I'll kick in the first $100 to start it off.
I think we all need to be reminded what the man did for the sport, and the way he treated those around him.
Come on, any ideas!!

+1
hey Boonty try contacting NSWKBA. This event should be given some serious legs.
The guys a legend who shouldnt be forgotten.

Start at Nobbies to Hams? or Redhead to Hams for the not so game?Then drinks at Caves Beach hotel? we just need a good n/e wind maybe Sat 10th or Sun 11th Dec if no wind try the following weekend ?We have to make sure the all the crew are available ?

Those dates are good for me, let's hope for some wind.

Can anyone can get a bus to carry everyone and gear from Hams to Nobbies?

Nobys to caves sound good to me

I wonder if we approached a sponsor, Slingshot or the cave beach hotel would they chip in.
EG we plan to have a beer at the hotel and they might assist if they already have a courtesy bus to lend us!
They both have kiting relos
I wonder if happy cabby would support the event, they have busses with trailers and we sometimes travel to the airport on them

Ha
Next two weekends are out for me
I kinda forgot about my daughters 21st on saturday
And I hopefully will be back in WA for another go at the redbull race, I think somebody invited the wind this time

Maybe sometime in February would be good.
It is past the holiday season for everyone and we should still have some seabreeze then

Good call Rick, hopefully we will be settled into a typical summer afternoon NE seabreeze pattern by then.

Good luck with the race, hope you get some wind.

Kinda forgot about your daughters 21st, hmm, hope neither her nor your wife reads this forum my friend.

Typical Summer NEsters .What are they? (probably a better chance with a southerly going on current trends ,no complaining here or elsewhere tho)? I'll put up brand new kite (whatever size ) for a charity Auction on seabreeze and will supply the BBQ stuff (and cook if the arm is twisted hard enough at the end or the beginning )..Whats the charity? (I'll try and organise a board for a charity Auction as well )

Maybe Dazzas Oz day lil gibba to hawks nest gig could be the go .the last 3 have delivered and have been a real hoot.Craigs got a brand new 4bee and is itchin to use it and fill it full of sand with eager hangers on

hey all, lets make it the "aussie andy day" Thu, 26 Jan 2012 little gibber down winder on australia day !! im without a 4wd now so its time to call in favors & borrow a car !! :-) i can chuck in a free service if theres a raffle or auction held?
