Our Within Our Reach Gala was held at SoDo Park in Seattle on 11-11-11. This fabulous event brought together Junior Parents, Masters Rowers, Alumni, Family, Friends and Coaches, all working together to support Sammamish Rowing and our drive towards a new boathouse.
One highlight of the evening was the announcement of our new Volunteer of the Year Award named in honor of our former Executive Director, Marcy Chartier. The new award was presented to Hanna Floss, who has been a long time member of SRA and has been a volunteer to our club in nearly every position ever needed. For the last year she has served as our office assistance and has helped to keep SRA running smoothly, we are all so grateful for the countless hours she has donated to the club! Another exciting portion of the evening was our 2nd Annual “Split-the-Pot” Raffle drawing. The raffle was a huge success raising over $26,000, half going to the lucky winner and the other half going straight towards the new boathouse!
A special thanks to all of our donors and volunteers. Our club, new boathouse and event simply could not be possible without your support! Together we are one step closer to completing our New Boathouse and creating a permanent home for Sammamish Rowing!
THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! [more...]
