Club Sake News - June 17, 2009

CLUB SAKE PICNIC – June 28
Sunday June 28, 10:30 - 2:30 pm
Newcastle Beach Park

PADDLE TO THE PICNIC
Matthew is organizing a paddle to the picnic: How about paddling to Newcastle Beach Park to kick off the picnic? I estimate that the trip is about 5.5 miles, which is less than the 6 mile race that we did in 58 minutes on Lake Sammamish! Our party starts at 10:30 am so if we leave Leschi at 9:30 we'll get there in style! We can arrange a car pool to take all our party supplies and other things to Newcastle. And if anyone has any ideas as to some relay race we can do with two dragon boats, I’m all ears! We can get a tow back so we don't have to paddle back. Contact Matthew at president@clubsake.com if you are interested.

CELEBRATION FOR HYLA Hyla Dobaj, our former Club SAKE Equipment Manager and coach of Survivor SAKE, is becoming a mom and adopting a young girl, Davonni . Survivor SAKE would like to celebrate this event by giving Hyla shower at the picnic on June 28. They are collecting optional donations of cash for a “From Club SAKE Gift Card”. Contact Diana Chien (dnchien@att.net ) or Bea Wells (bea@miraclesandwonders.com ) to make your donation.

DONATIONS REQUESTED FOR CELEBRATING LIFE! RAFFLE Survivor SAKE is again chairing the yearly RAFFLE at our August race to raise funds for TSNW programs. It’s a chance to contribute all sorts of items to be included in approximately 12 “raffle bundles”. These bundles will be organized around dragons and/or dragon boating. (However, the items – be they large, small or in between – do not necessarily have to be dragon items.) Some ideas for raffle donations are children’s items, animal/pet items, craft/handmade items, food, art work, jewelry, clothing, dragon boating gear, general dragon stuff and so on. We’re also looking for one or two BIG items that will be part of a special ticket raffle. Contact Diana Chien (dnchien@att.net ) or Bea Wells (bea@miraclesandwonders.com ) with your donation(s) no later than the end of July.

PADDLING GLOVES FOR SALE Bea Wells has cold water gloves for sale at $20.00. This is a fund raiser for Survivor SAKE. The gloves are rubber with fleece lining. Most places they sell for $20.00 except on line, but by the time you pay postage it comes to $20.00 or more. Contact Bea at bea@miraclesandwonders.com if you’d like to buy a pair or two.
