Hi HK soaring enthusiasts,

As many of you know, I am Thomas Lee, and along with Allan Yeung and Johnson Yeung will be representing Hong Kong in the 2013 F3K World Championships in Denmark, with Cai Xuming as our Team Manager.

As you can imagine, without any government support all fees are coming out of our own pockets, and the cost is very very high. To help offset some of the costs we have organized a team apparel fundraiser. All proceeds will go towards the three pilots heading to Denmark.

Both the jerseys and hats are made with high-quality dry-fit material for quick moisture wicking during sports, perfect for our hot and humid summer season in Hong Kong.

Any and all support is hugely appreciated by the team, please help out, thank you!

Yours,
Thomas Lee
2013 Hong Kong F3K Team Pilot

Thanks Wing for picking the first team Jersey. The shirt is very nicely made and is cool to wear. The quality and material are both cool to wear in summer and in windy days for slope.

As our rc soaring community is exploring its adventure in various aspect , say 3B, 3F and 3K, at a world level, it is necessay to obtain support for our fellow in Hong Kong. In future , we will see young pilots with talent attending such international contest. We believe it is time for our community to recognise the need for such fund raising and come out to help.

Hi guys! Wow, thank you for the support! Wing, CM, you guys are awesome :D

Yes any donations or support is welcomed as well! Right now the cost per person is approximately $25,000 HKD, so every dollar and dime counts.

Hopefully this will only be a start in terms of fundraiser for HK F3X teams, including F3F, 3B, etc. Every team has worked hard to earn the honor to represent our home at the World Championships, and having home support is important.

The entire team and team manager will be flying in the SCSA F3K Spring Open this weekend, we will post some pics in the appropriate forum after the fact :)

Funds can be deposited to my bank account where I am handling the financials for the trip:

Bank: Hong Kong BEA
Account Name: Mr Lee Jick Hoi and Lee Shing Woon
Account Number: 015-169-88-01300-6

Thank you,
Thomas Lee
