Subject: SWSKC www site for clubs and kite products

Currently, several individuals in the SWSKC are working on a brilliant 
idea, which I'm sure someone else has already thought of. If I'm 
stealing your idea then feel free to flame me but please do it on e-mail 
and btw-please be reciprical [sp].

Chris Moore, Kelly Reed, Abel Ortega and (yes) Mr.Nasty are working on 
getting space on a server to set up a web page which will include all 
the clubs in this area with the club logo as a means of url'ing to the 
club profile section.

The club profile section will include the name of the president, some 
background on the club, a few teasers from the club newsletter, and pins 
or patches the club may have available.

We are working on trying to also include a space where Web browsers can 
put comments or even request information from clubs on upcoming events 
or just more information on the clubs. We felt that this would help 
local clubs increase membership through cyberspace.

There would also be an area for comments and request for future topics 
to discuss. As the founder of a local kite club and editor of the 
newsletter, I know first hand what it takes to get ideas for articles. 
So the request area would be a great way to get started. With the net 
and rec.kites the request for additional information could be posted for 
the benefit of all rec.kiters and provide useful information for 
articles in local newsletters.

I realize that someone has already thought of this. I'm sure David 
Gomberg is on the committee.

We will also provide an area for local kite business to advertise, so 
Web browsers can see both the local club activity and the place to 
purchase materials kites. This will all be maintained in Austin by Kelly 
Reed who has agreed, (because he's getting free access) to maintain the 
system.

If your club is within the SWSKC boundries and would like to get 
involved in this Web Page you can e-mail me at Mr.Nasty@ix.netcom.com 
were still in the planning stages. If you think other clubs also might 
be interested pass this info to them.

This is a way to get more people involved in rec.kites, (so we don't 
have the same ole stale...well you know what I mean) and in local club 
activity.
