See info below regarding SF Paddler's Party this year! Always a good time, especially to mingle w/ other folks in the DB community - and maybe you can be this year's Ed and bring home a new carbon fiber paddle from the raffle.
Please RSVP via the evite that will be sent out w/ the weekly email digest this week. We need headcount ASAP (before 9/24) . If you can't make it, respond "No" on the evite so I don't have to guess or track you down personally.
