Dear Davey and Jennifer,
I am an italian canoist and pasionate to ww slalom, I am a member of some
yahoogroup concerning slalom canoing in USA and so I have the chance to send
this mail answering to your post.

I met Davey and Cathry at an italian restaurant near Holme Pierpont (Nottingham)
during the europa Cup in '88, a long time ago.

I am still "inlove" with slalom kayaking and my purpouse is to develope it in my
hometown: Rome (Italy)

I invite you to visit these sites about some slalom races we organised in the
centre of Rome.
It was a tribute to the first historical edition in '69, on the right side of
the tiberina island, so we managed two other editions in 2007 and 2008, on the
left side, cause the right side is no more praticable.

I hope we can continue it and make the event even bigger, and also have in the
future a permanent slalom site.

Regards and happy paddling

Giovanni Perozzi
