this is really good news that Jessie got the clinic up and going. I know it's been a dream of hers for years. EJ has always given her free boats, so of ocurse she was super happy to see the Jackson family over there this winter to help out. I'm sure it was a wonderful experience for the kids too.
All kayak stuff aside for a moment. This took alot of work on Jessie's part, and I hope that the clinic can keep going. When she gets back to the U.S. I'm going to talk to her about some fundraising ideas. So, all you boaters keep that in mind for the future....
(by the way, Jessie is a NYC area boater originally. Not many people know how close that city is to some good whitewater...)
