...seemed to be a dearth of a professor paddlers at the AW beer function/fundraiser last night. It was a fun evening that you all missed which helped to support our brothas and sistahs that work hard to keep our rivers open and accessible. |

Looks like you got more than dirty and thirsty....You got a big-o-fat-ass.

whatever it is I think I see becomes a big fat crack too me. Bad, bad, bad. Oh and sorry I missed out but beer is so last week. Try a fund raiser with 25 cent huffing and you might have a bigger turn out. Or Cool aid. Never mind, that idea is as bad as the crack pic! Bud dum pum....cha!!! ------------- There's no such word as can't!so stop making excuses!!!! |

Thanks for getting the word out on this site about the AW fundraiser. I just moved to seattle on sunday and it was great to go have a great beer for a great cause. |

I was there - good tasy beer, but I only work a block away so it was easy to go. Once the beer started flowing, the raffle tickets seemed to be selling faster.
AW should have another one - maybe at a more convenient time\location - this was the first local benie of theirs that I had heard of. Plus, I am always up for having a beer that isn't coming from a bootie. ------------- “The problem with people who have no vices is that generally you can be pretty sure they're going to have some pretty annoying virtues.” |

Thanks to all who came out. The event had great turn out and we raised over $1000. Rock Bottom approached us about the event through one of our members so their marketing folks picked the time/place. We have limited staff for event planning so to the extent folks are interested in helping coordinate these things we certainly appreciate it. Thank you Rock Bottom! ------------- Thomas O'Keefe PNW Stewardship Director American Whitewater |
