Our friends at Sail Sand Point remain committed to getting people of all walks of life on the water. This is a chance to provide some support, have a good meal and share the evening with fellow sailors. If you’re unfamiliar with Sail Sand Point, check it out.
From Seth Muir, Executive Director, Sail Sand Point:
Sail Sand Point, Seattle’s community nonprofit sailing center on Lake Washington, serves over 15,000 people each year with their sailing programs. On Thursday, July 25th from 530-9pm we are hosting their annual summer fundraising dinner on the gorgeous porch of the Magnuson Cafe and Brewery to raise funds for their youth sailing programs. This year we are honoring WA State Rep Gerry Pollet with their Community Impact Award as well. Tickets are available HERE and they come with live music, dinner and local beer/wine and ciders, as well as access to exciting auction, raffle items and a chance to raise a paddle for kids’ sailing. Or if you’re interested in making a donation ‘in lieu of attending’, that can be done through their secure website here. Come Party on the Porch for youth sailing!
