Hey I will let the officials give the official word on the meeting (maybe post minutes?) but I'd just like to thank Kirsten and Mark for running the meeting and resurrecting the CGKA!
Also thanks to those who spoke highly of this site and yours truly, I couldn't really express it at that moment (I was too embarrassed) but I was really happy that the site received the recognition it did. Thanks! Last edited by pkh on Fri Jun 16, 06 6:20 am; edited 1 time in total |

Hi all,
I didn't get a chance to meet a lot of you last night but was very impressed with what got accomplished at the first meeting! It was also very cool to run into some of you that I met when I was involved with Kitexcite in Cabarete. Hopefully you can keep the momentum up and give kiters a true voice and empowerment in decision making.
If The Kiteboarder or ASNEWS.net can help in any way with your dealings with the various powers that be, or help spread the word, let me know.
Philip, didn't get a chance to personally meet you but now know a face behind the email. This is one of the best forums around. You are doing an excellent job and Mark was right. You are a talented moderator:)
