13 Days Til Christmas….
Tree trimming, gift shopping, gatherings, travel planning and FEASTs with roast beast, don’t forget to sneak in some Training! You will feel better before, during and after your feasts!
1. FUNDRAISER @ THE ROSE BOWL – Tues Jan 1
- Reminder: For those that participated in the Nov 24th event and are signed up for Jan 1st, contact captains if you would like to give up your spot to share the experience. We will try to fill those spots with other interested Space Dragons!
2. PRACTICE
Pre-Season
- Remainder of 2012 practices are at 9a!
- We are working on technique and light endurance
- Dust off your paddle, loosen up your PFD and come on out and enjoy the beautiful CRISP mornings =)
3. 2013 Alcan Dragon Boat Festival (VANCOUVER) – Fri Jun 21 – Sun Jun 23
- I know it’s early but this is a B I G D E A L!
- While our regular warm up tournaments, Tempe and Baby LB, are still in play
- Start your plans now for Vancouver. Things to consider:
* Time off: Try to schedule arrival Thu or early Fri to available for a Fri practice in Vancouver!
* Passport: Canada travel requires a passport, it must be valid through Jan 2014
* Travel Costs: Start saving today! One less beer a week is already $200 saved ;)
* Evite: Check out evite and sign up (Yes, Maybe, No) and keep it updated =)
* Questions: Have questions? Need convincing? Ask your favorite vet!
4. Parkas
- Our order of 21 parkas is in! See Gracey for your parka if you haven't already received it.
- Sad that you didn't get in on this big order, even though Gracey gave you ample opportunity to jump in on it? Now you have a second chance! Email Marina about ordering a parka - she's setting up another parka order. Last chance before the 2013 season starts!
CHARITIES!
