Hey everybody! This is something we are doing in NC. I don't know why we can't go ahead and do it nation wide. After you read this, if you are interested in heading this up in your area let me know. All the money raised should stay local. That way you are making an impact in your own communities not mine. <BR> <BR>We are planning a FUN'd raiser March 8th. Wakeboard during the day, snowboard in the evening, all to raise money to benefit local Children's Homes. The money raised will help support the "Wake the World" event later in the summer (June 22 &amp; 23) Here is video from last year. <BR> <BR><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=glkfviTlQhU" target="_blank">www.youtube.com/watch?v=glkfviTlQhU</a> <BR> <BR>Here is how it is going to work: <BR> <BR>Participants (you) will sign up. <BR>Choose the best site for you to wakeboard. Belews, Hyco or Lake Wylie (this list may change). <BR>We will have boat dealers at each location to provide the boats. <BR>You will travel (either on your own or with us in a van) to either Sugar or App (that is being decided today.) <BR>When you arrive, you will follow the signs to check in, pick up your hooded sweatshirt, decals &amp; lift ticket. <BR>We may or may not have a hospitality area set up (depending on sponsors) <BR> <BR>This is also a possible Guiness World Record attempt, Most people to wakeboard &amp; snowboard on the same day. We applied with Guiness and should know sometime next week if they will accept this "new" category. <BR> <BR>If you would like to participate let me know by email <BR>waketheworld @ earthlink.net <BR> <BR>There is also a facebook group, Wake N Flake <BR> <BR>I should know the cost per person later today and lot's more details by middle of next week. <BR> <BR>There will probably be some good media coverage also. So if you know of a potential sponsor, send them our way. <BR> <BR>Be a part of something cool that you can tell your friends about for the rest of your life! <BR> <BR>Greg <BR> <BR>Let's make this an annual event, 2nd Sunday in March every year.
