Creative Fundraising - Party in Portland

twostates · Since 28 Aug 2007 101 Posts pdx Stoked

Hey all, I'm having a fundraising party in Portland next Thursday for KB4C. I hope everyone can make it. I'm organizing a pretty decent raffle. If you have anything you'd like to donate or get rid of, PM me and I'll take it! But mostly just come and have a few beers!

Below are details and a lovely little poster. Tell all your friends.

Please stop by next Thursday for a sunset session at Crossfit. No working out, just hanging out on a summer evening, having drinks and snacks and getting in on some good raffle action. We'll have videos and music, and lots of good people
to hang out with. Bring your friends, and help out for a good cause.

All proceeds go to benefit Kiteboarding for Cancer, an event to benefit the John Wayne Cancer Foundation.

Thursday August 7th, 2008 - 7:30 PM
At Crossfit Portland - 740 N Russell Street - PDX
$10 Suggested Donation

AWESOME!
now this is the spirit of raising money for a good cause.
I'll be there for the event so will come down early to attend your party.
I threw a couple of bucks on your KB4C page to show appreciation for your efforts.
Good luck with your fundraising!

So Bob, does that mean mixwell will be on the clock while spinning?

Oh no not more shop t shirts .
He works well on and off the clock. I appreciate his attitude and hope he finds work rewarding.

Awesome. The party just got better. Thx.

This is an awesome event, Jeri! It's like a mini KB4C. Thanks for putting it on.

PDX crew and anyone else who is not doing anything Thursday night should make it to this event. DJ Mixwell will be there spinning tunes and there are drinks, food, and prizes to be had!!

We're already almost to $40,000... this event could put us over and then some!!!!

yah,
i'm really jealous i didn't come up with this idea! Smile

I'm going to try and make it after my group swim in the sewer [willamette] downtown! I'll be ready for a beer!

Swimming in the WR not recommended. I'd say skip it and come to the party. Hope everyone can make it.

I'm working on some entertainment aside from our own Mixwell (!)
