“Wow! What a great day at the November San Diego Kite Club meeting! As I drove up I recognized Don Tabor Jr sitting in his truck. He came by to donate a buggy to the club and a vintage “mint in box” (actually in shipping package) Top of The Line Team Hawaiian kite. We convinced Don that though it has value as an unopened package, it would be more valuable with his signature on it. Coupled with that, the club made Frustrationless Flyer kites with a cancer awareness theme. Blue sky, mild winds, kites in the sky, AND Don Tabor- the godfather of sportkiting!”

 Kite Building:

Decorating. Who knew that each cancer had its own special ribbon color. Some of the builders were just creative.
