Space Dragons,

1.  2012 SEASON STARTS THIS WEEKEND!
  • Did you miss us? Because we sure as heck missed you!  Practice starts this weekend, 11/5!  Due to popular demand, we will be holding Sunday practices as well.
  • So remember the new thing about practice?  Yes, YOU need to go fill out the poll NOW so we know exactly how many boats and what sizes we need.  You don't want to be left out on the beach because there's no space for you, do you?
  • Remember it is IMPERATIVE that we ask for the exact number of boats and sizes we need since TK and Mike are generous enough to lug those steering oars from their house to the beach.
  • SO GO FILL OUT THE POLL NOW!
  • Reminder: If the Boy Scout lots are closed for dock renovation, you may park on the streets.  Let the captains know of any complaints.  Or you could utilize the Mother's Beach metered lot, remember it's free before 10 AM. 

2.  YE DINNER -- Sat 12/3
  • Time to get fabulous!  We have a great venue to ourselves and a live band (so DJ Bakasan gets a break and can actually enjoy the party)!
  • So what are you waiting for?  RSVP on the Evite now
  • And pay Space Dragons $35.  Deadline 11/20.
  • Got any auction/raffle items to offer?  Want to contribute but need ideas?  Talk to Kat Wells or Janet!
3.  OTHER UPCOMING EVENTS
  • SD Bowling Night -- Sat 11/5 7 PM, yup, that's the first day of off-season practice because we know you can't get enough of your teammates!
