![]() ![]() By Maria Lyness. Earlier this year, when the windsurfing season was at its peak and Cape Town full of international visitors I stumbled across Peter Garzkes initiative for windsurfing with kids from the "townships". The townships are (often underdeveloped) urban living areas that, under Apartheid, were reserved for non-whites and till today are the home to the poorest South Africans. Peter had the idea to give some kids from these difficult circumstances the chance to learn windsurfing and to build bridges through the passion of our sport. I found his project extremely interesting and asked if he could do with some help for the next session. more posted by editors at 5/30/2008 09:34:00 AM |
