Support Billy Parker Fund
Everyone out there thinks Billy is such a great rider.... and ya know what... HE IS!!! He is something for St Pete and all of Tampa Bay to be proud of. He finished 103rd in the world last year and only competed in 1 event.
Since Flexi seems to be kinda missing it...I think we should come together and support him. The next PKRA event is in Cabarete on June 26. American Airlines has a special but we need to book soon. It cost about $800 for a week trip there. I have no doubt that he will do his best and make all of us proud. My company, O~Studio Kitchen and Bath, has deposited $100 into the Billy Parker fund. Your financial suport will be greatly appreciated.The paypal account is: raver_jay@excite.com Since Billy does not check this forum please keep it on the DOWNLOW. Time is limited so please pledge SOON. We will surprise him in 2 weeks with airline tickets if response is adequate. Thanks in Advance Everyone, Jay |

If we can get 30 riders to each give 25 bucks, we will make it.
10 bucks helps too. Just do it, and soon, so we can give Billy the good news and let him focus on the contest. For those of you on the fence, what Erick says here sums it up: Quote:
He's earned a lot of karma points and is the kind of guy we want representing the sport and St. Pete. |

Laurel Eastman at LEK http://www.laureleastmankiteboarding.com/ is super nice and she runs a Kite Surf school in Cabarete. She can assist you in getting the hook ups around the area.

Thanks Chris, I sent her an email this morning and am waiting for her reply.
I just talked to Tiff and we are going to try and get Billy to Undertow around noon on Sunday. Does everyone want to meet there to surprise him and for some refreshments? |
