Subject: Kiteboarding for Cancer at Hood River this weekend ... looking for contributions.

Hi all,
I just found out about this event at Hood River, Oregon and decided to give it a go in memory of our beloved friend Jeff Simon. Basically, it's an all day kiteboarding endurance race in which you try to do as many laps as possible, and all proceeds go to the John Wayne Cancer Foundation. I've signed up as a "fundraising athlete," which means anyone can make donations on behalf of my daring conquest of the epic Hood River winds in Jeff's honor. For more info, check out the event website at  
http://www.kb4c.org/index.html. If you'd like to make donations, visit the following website:
http://www.active.com/donate/kb4c2008/jeffsimon. Any donation, big or small would be awesome. I've made an initial contribution of 100$ for the entry fee (plus I'll be shelling out plenty of gas-dough to get there), and would love to see everyone else throw in somesupport...whether it be 1$ or.....1 millliiiiooon dollars! Also, if you have a burning desire, you're more than welcome to contribute to the "nick ward Seattle to Hood River Gas fund."  Please send this email on to anyone who would be interested in making contributions.
Sorry for the late notice, but that's just how I roll.

Cheers,
Nick
