Our club is sponsoring an event at the SPARC this Thursday from 7 to 8 PM. The event is produced by the Bunnell Street Arts Center and is titled A COSMIC HAMLET BY THE SEA Vol. 2. It is a very interesting approach to interesting presentations that are brief and concise using a technique called Pechakucha! Very nice article as well as advertisement in the Homer news page B1.

The Halibut Cove BBQ is fast approaching! At this time we have 34 planning to attend! In addition to the AR which is Stillpoint Lodge's boat (23) passengers we have Steve Yoshida and Paul Seaton's boats. we are needing both of  the boats to get everyone over and back. Steve has room for several people more. Paul Seaton has room for 4, his boat is a large 23 foot open set net skiff so if you are traveling with Paul and Tina dress appropriately! Contact Paul at 299-3434 or email at < pkseaton@gmail.com >.

A reminder to bring a Dish to share ,as well as any beverage that you may want for yourself or to share. Last year those who were on the Stillpoint Lodge boat were encouraged to Tip the staff as we disembarked. The same would be appreciated this year. We are very fortunate to have them donate their time and vessel. Without them we would be looking at the expense of water taxi's which would likely decrease attendance! 

The Stillpoint Lodge's boat will be loading at RAMP 1, planning to leave at 1pm.  PLEASE BE EARLY! 

Our new Exchange Student, Euna, will be attending, it has been brought to my attention that some one on one conversation would be appreciated as she continues to adjust to her new life and our language. She is still adjusting to larger groups.
