Orlando, Florida. - The conception of The Wakeboard Foundation has been quick in the making. Just last week Chris Bischoff and The Mastercraft Pro Tour committed their full support to The Wakeboard Foundation, and already there has been an overwhelming show of support from the wakeboard community. The Foundation is reaching out to you, the riders, to become involved.
 
The Wakeboard Foundation is committed to utilizing the unique resources of its professional wakeboarders and the wakeboard community to enrich the lives of those children battling pediatric cancer. It intends to do so through a series of enrichment events and one signature initiative, Handles for Hope. The events will take place in the Orlando area beginning in February with the BYOB: Bring Your Own Boardshorts Bar Crawl and continue through the season. Handles for Hope will ride with the tour around the country to promote the foundation through merchandise sales and various raffles.
 
Without the support of you, the riders, the Foundation cannot operate successfully! Riders are welcome to become involved at any participation level. With the BYOB Bar Crawl quickly approaching, please contact Kayleigh Pratt (937-902-9759, Pratt.kayleigh@gmail.com) with The Wakeboard Foundation as soon as possible to learn more about volunteer opportunities. We hope that you are all excited to become involved and give back.
