: Mike at the Eli Whitney Museum contacted me early this spring about
: summer classes they have ever year for kids and one of them is a
: boat building class. This year they wanted to try SOF and wanted
: to use one of my designs. Well, I am all about getting kids
: involved in the sport so I did what I could to help them out. I
: new school was starting back and I had checked their web site
: but not seen anything on the classes.

: This morning I got an email with photos and posted them on my Blog.
: I am proud to have been a small part in this. Love seeing kids
: being taught to build something instead of just buying it. And
: of course being introduced to kayak at a young age too!
