The YAG year has started!

Tonight we met to share a meal, talk about what we'd like to do this year, and play board games. We have an exciting year of events planned!

Sunday, October 25th, 4pm: Pumpkin Carving at Saltwater! Bring a pumpkin and your creativity. Children, and youth are encouraged. We will drink apple cider and celebrate the spirit of the harvest season together!

Saturday, November 7th, 5pm: Auction Night! I am chairing this big event and it would be awesome if everyone could come. Cost is $10 a ticket. There will be many ways to volunteer before and during the big night.

Sunday, November 22nd, after second service: Holiday Tree Decorating! We will all meet to put up and decorate Saltwater's enormous holiday tree. Cocktails and snacks will be served as we listen to holiday music and help make our sanctuary glow!

Sunday, December 13th, 6pm: Holiday Party! Bring a white elephant gift, a dish to share, and we will celebrate in style. This will be a fancy event, so dress accordingly! The event will be hosted by Jaime and Sunshine

December: Ninja Santa...details to be announced via email early in December.

January: No specific events...YET...but i think a bingo night is in order.

February: Birthday Party! Cora and Justin will host us as we celebrate all of our birthday's together in one hullabaloo!

March: Jordan and Ellie are planning a "Make Your Own Beer" party in Edmonds. Details to come!

April: Poker Tournament. Kass and I will be planning a fundraiser for the church which will include a $20 buy in for a poker tournament and the chance to (hopefully) win an overnight cruise. Possibility of adding Bingo into the mix for people who are not card players!

May: Karaoke at Saltwater! This will be an awesome night. We will use the dias as our stage, and the words will be shown on the big screen. There will be drinks and food too!

June: Camping...Kass is going to find a spot that does not require reservations. It will be primitive and a HECK of a LOT of fun.
