15 new teams, six teams with one new team member, six family teams, two female teams and seven mixed teams.

We love to see all the familier names on the list, we love that we have so many new teams and we love that VAKE also appeals to kiting brothers, sisters, cousins, parents, sons, daughters and couples 🙂
