The Kite Shoppe Posted September 19, 2006 Report Share Posted September 19, 2006 I am submitting the AKA Sanctioning papers today to AKA! Thanks to Bud and Linda Hayes, this event is off the ground and flying! More info will follow as we nail down the details. For now, it looks like we will have open gym time Friday evening the 3rd of Nov, open gym time Sat the 4th for playing, demos, and a full blown AKA Sanctioned Competition (9 flyers expressed being there so far) and a Hot tricks. Sunday, more open floor time, demos, and being tossed around is the idea of an additional Comp. Yep, two in the same weekend. Either both added...or as Bud explained it to me...use one or the other as a 'Mulligan'. Check back for more details please. Also...please post if you are interested and plan on attending. It will certainly help us know who's interested! Thanks! Theresa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Penny Lingenfelter Posted September 27, 2006 Report Share Posted September 27, 2006 I am going to try and be there. It sounds like a great opportunity to see everyone in November. We heard quite a few comments this weekend at Whidbey Island about how much all the indoor fliers have improved. Kudos! BB Penny~ trying to pick up her new indoor single handle to test.

Penny Lingenfelter Posted October 24, 2006 Report Share Posted October 24, 2006 Hey Theresa, My husband said to book a room for Camas, and I've invited a sister who I seldom see to come stay with us. She lives somewhere in OR. So, we'll be there. I better go remind Steve not to book any football games. See you all there. BB Penny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Penny Lingenfelter Posted October 26, 2006 Report Share Posted October 26, 2006 So T, Your the sponsor. Can I do a demo and give lessons? You'll bring plenty of UFO's to sale? Oh, if you want me to fly one that is not to floppy... (but flies good-very penny proof) You might want me to fly yours. I did win the green/blue UFO and it's waiting to play with "I do not like green eggs and ham" I have to paint my own kite, because Jerry Fincher will be out of town until after the event and I have no patience to wait. No one is here to save my kite from me! lol Does anyone have hotel recommendations? I'm wearing an indoor pin today in anticipation.

Penny Lingenfelter Posted December 7, 2006 Report Share Posted December 7, 2006 OH.. Ahh Staeli, Congrats! Just think if you are a member of Kitelife you might win an outdoor one! Wait... never mind.. If you ask Bud real nicely, he'd probably find a way to make a single handle. Let me know if you need any help. You did good girl!
