What paperwork are you having problems with? If it's insurance, Evans has probably filled out the most then possibly Brad.

Gabe, Contact Angus at Coastal Wind Sports, he is the new insurance guy. He can contact our insurance provider and have a certificate of insurance faxed naming the Turf farm as additionally insured for this event. This can then be faxed to him, or to Jeff, or both. or to you whomever you wish. You will need the name and address of the Turf Farm for the certificate. It would be good for both the Turf farm and Jeff to have a copy in their possession.

Yep, got to keep the buggiers away from the general public. You guys are a bad influence:lol:
The areas of use have changed a bit this year, but don't worry, will be lots of room to play.

I think if you do anything more than fly a kite you have to have the insurance and NAPKA provides that.

Winds were fair to good all day. Powered guys weren't flying. 10m most of the day. About 45 minutes with my 4.5 . Just before sunset to well after things just got sweet. I wish I had lights I would still be out there. Tomorrow am looks to be more of the same. No crabs, no crowds, just lots of grass excuse me sod.
