Posted: Sun Aug 13, 2023 11:46 pm
Growing up on the beach at Nitinat, then, waterfront in Port Alberni and China Creek, 17 yr old Sam has been sailing his whole life and started kiteboarding over the past couple of years. Many of the wind community know our family and have watched Sam grow and thrive over the years.
He recently discovered World Class Kiteboarding Academy based near Hood River (White Salmon, Washington) with their mission statement - "World Class Kiteboard Academy is an accredited private high school that combines academics, athletics, travel, and cultural immersion with the sport of kiteboarding. It is a school that recognizes that learning and passion must go hand in hand. It is a school that pushes alternative education to new heights with a firm belief that quality education comes from interacting with the world around us. WCKA is a school for students who are motivated to learn beyond the traditional classroom and for students who want kiteboarding to take them to new boundaries of discovery."
With our support and encouragement, Sam worked hard on his application and was awarded a scholarship to join this year's class.
He started a Gofundme page to raise money for the remaining tuition, gear and travel costs. For more information and to join his senior year journey https://www.gofundme.com/f/q54fzf-sams- ... ar-journey
