    Default New to this site!

    Hey everybody!

    My name is Greg and I am the founder of Wake the World ( a group of boat owners that take kids from Children's Homes out for a day at the lake).

    We started in 2008, myself and 7 other friends with boats. This year our event was 20 boats for 2 days and 125 kids! Even more awesome than that is the fact that were 9 events in 7 states this year. Our last event of the season was hosted by a Supra dealer (Boulder Boats) on Lake Mead last weekend.

    This was the first event to be held by a dealer, all of the other events are put on by boat owners. Stuart & Kristina of Boulder Boats did a fantastic job and even had a couple of Pro Riders there (Will Christien & Jimmy Trasck).

    I am on here to encourage you to take a look at what has been going on and become a part of it. Tak e a look at this video from our Texas event and tell me what you think...
