Only 8 years has gone by. At that time, the author of the MA Thesis could not forsee the "extractive" nature of kiteboarding on the "old-growth windsurfer resource". forrest Since 21 Jun 2005 4330 Posts Hood River Hick CGKA Member Thu Mar 20, 08 8:52 am     Good one. I found this article to be pretty interesting. I attended the community meeting about the Cascade Locks Casino and been doing some research to form an opinion on this casino idea. tonyb Since 09 Oct 2006 973 Posts Stevenson in the summer & SPI in the winter Bolstad Clan Thu Mar 20, 08 4:06 pm     Actually kiteboarding is mentioned. One time, about half way through the article. Windsurfing shows up 36 times. It must be a cooler sport.        Northwest Kiteboarding -> Gorge / Portland / Oregon Coast All times are GMT - 8 Hours Page 1 of 1   Jump to: Select a forum Northwest Kiteboarding Discussion Forum----------------Gorge / Portland / Oregon CoastFor SaleLost & FoundIndustry SoapboxCGKA  You cannot post new topics in this forum You cannot reply to topics in this forum You cannot edit your posts in this forum You cannot delete your posts in this forum You cannot vote in polls in this forum You can attach files in this forum You can download files in this forum
