[J24 ListSrv] Star of the North Regatta Meeting and Volunteer Opportunities

[Carmella Foster]

There will be a meeting for all interested parties this Sunday, September
6th, after the race.  I know it's Labor Day weekend, and I expect few
attendees.  Location will be announced.
 
There are lots of volunteer opportunities.  Some are better filled by
non-sailors or members of other fleets.  I am sending this to all fleets.
Ask your friends, your kids, your mom!  Let me know what you can do, and
when!
 
 
 
We need (this list will most certainly turn out to be incomplete):
 
1.  People to procure donations of raffle prizes.  Hit up restaurants for
gift certificates, etc.
 
2.  One or 2 people to be "in charge" of the raffle.  Supervise ticket
sellers, organize the prizes, conduct the drawing.
