Smokey Point Event Reminder

The Smokey Point Rest Stop event is set for June 10 - June 13 at the north-bound rest stop.

A happy crew from the 2009 event

Steve Shelton is still looking for more volunteers to help man the booth and hand out coffee and cookies. Steve would like to have two people in the booth for late nights/early mornings and the busy times are usually in mornings and late afternoons, but who knows what the weekend will bring!

It is always a good time and gives us a chance to talk with some other base members and the public.

After reviewing Steve's schedule, it looks like there are still spots open on Saturday afternoon and most of the day Sunday, and the late night shifts can always use another body. Most of the shifts on Saturday and Sunday could also use extra people.

You might want to consider making a day of things by coming out to put in a couple hours at the rest stop and then head off for one of the casinos afterwards (Tulalip and Angel of the Winds are both nearby). You can consider it your treat for a good deed. Steve says he is planning on checking out the food buffets at least once!

Remember, providing cookies and other munchies for handing out is a good alternative if you can’t be there.
This event is an important way for the base to raise donations and we can really use your help.

If you would like to help out, please contact Steve at, e-mail: sdshelton@comcast.net, or phone (206) 526-1130.
