First: We are in need of volunteers for the *Dawg Daze event* on *Sunday September 24th. *This is our largest outreach event of the year where skippers will be taking hundreds of incoming freshmen on short outings on Union Bay or just beyond. In addition we will need volunteers for* tabling, chatting to people in line (or teaching knot-tying), setup and tear down.* It is always a lot of fun! *Please sign up to volunteer here* *. <-- for Dawg Daze* Second: We are in need of another round of instructing and assisting for lessons in the upcoming quarter. Some perks include free membership for the quarter (can be applied to later quarters) and lots of appreciation! You need a skipper + whaler rating to instruct. Alternatively, if you have an intermediate rating, grab another intermediate-rated friend to co-instruct (one whaler rating needed). Finally, an intermediate rating is all you need to be an assistant instructor. *Please fill out this survey if you are interested in Fall Instructing!* As always, let us know if you have any questions.
