Fundraiser!

 
We had a fundraiser for East Bay Sailing Foundation!  I've been the Treasure for 8 years now - wow!  We are a non profit, so depend on donations for any extra boats, sails, etc that we need.  The $$ we generate from sailing classes just pays the yearly salaries and maintenance costs.
Since we couldn't use our yacht club, we used the Marine Museum in town (which was a fantastic alternative!)
 
 We kept it simple - some auction items; appetizers; soup & bread.  The main attraction was Charlie Enright - one of the main sailors on the sailing vessel:  Vestas/11th Hour Racing, a Volvo Ocean Race boat.  Serious Stuff!


 We had a full house!


 Charlie gave a great presentation, as always



It was a successful evening - thanks to our donors and Charlie!
