SD Digest 6/6/12

Good morning Space Dragons. 

 

This is your captains speaking.  Welcome on board SD Flight 2012 with continuing service to Portland, Long Beach and San Francisco.  The cabin crew will be coming around to get you to respond to the poll, come out to practice, keep up your off-water training, sign up for tournaments and pay your fees and dues.  Until then, sit back, relax, and read the rest of this Digest.

 

1.  PORTLAND - June 9 & 10
-  Portland crew, look out for the Logistics Email. Coming at you later today.

-  Good luck Portland crew!

 

2.  PRACTICE - June 9 & 10

- Non-Portland crew, regular practice continues!

- No more parking on the street, boy scout lot is now open (and repaved smooth like a baby's butt)

- Keep on responding to the poll!  We're getting much more accurate counts now.  Last weekend, we had one single seat open on our boats.  That shows how important the polls are now.  So good job, thank you, and keep it up!

- Certified Steerspeople: Please bring your numbers to every practice, even if you are not planning to steer.  We may need you to step up and volunteer, or sit in bench 10 to allow a non-certified steersperson a chance at the helm.  Thank you for helping the team!

 

3.  OC-2 TESTING - Sun June 17

- As always, highly recommended for everyone.  Keep your eyes out next week for sign-ups.

 

4.  BAKE SALE - Sat June 30

- Our second annual bake sale.  Last year we had great participation and were able to raise nearly $400. Think we can beat that this year?

- We'll be sending out sign-ups for bakers and volunteers/helpers.  Please start thinking about what you can bring!

- Ideas for goodies: Cookies, fruit-on-a-stick, watermelon, brownies, banana bread, pumpkin bread, pie.

 

5.  BIG LONG BEACH - July 31 & August 1

- Really not that far away anymore.  So sign up on the Evite.

 

6.  SPACE DRAGONS POKER TOURNAMENT - TBD

- Have you responded to our facebook event invite? Please respond, even if in the negative.  If there is enough interest, we really hope this can be a fun fundraiser for the team.  Date to be determined, so just because you say yes doesn't mean we're going to hold you to it. But at least we can gauge general interest.
