Kent Kite Flyers have been invited back once again to provide teddy bear parachuting, last year there was around 350 drops We do need a team of at least five but preferably a a couple of additional members so we can rotate and allow members to have breaks which we did not get last year. We had to take time out for a comfort break but there was a large queue already formed when we returned.
The venue is King George VI Memorial park in Ramsgate, except for Bill with equipment we have to take cars off the field and park in the surrounding streets by 10am

We are either very brave or very foolhardy but, despite all the hard work this year, would still like to be part of the Bear Parachuting team 2014. Just hope the weather is as good.
