Thanks for helping at Project Open Hand!

Hey boys and girls! awesome job last Friday. Hope you enjoyed chopping those onions, and opening those gigantic tomato cans as much as I did! I know it can be a bit tricky to get out of work by 5, so I truly appreciate you guys coming out.

Race setup tomorrow before practice!

Please try to get to Wednesday practice a few minutes early so we can haul the extra docks to the water! Hopefully we can finish quickly and get in a few race pieces.

We hope you had a great time at karaoke this past weekend! There were lots of great pictures to be taken and shiny objects to be, um, climbed.

And if you made it to practice the very next morning, even better! Great job on the gender and mixed crews, the race is less than two weeks away!

Giants game tonight!

Tony will be at the ballpark near the Willie Mays statue at 6pm (at 3rd & King, pictured) to give out your tickets. Past 7pm he’ll leave the tickets at will-call under “Tony Ng.”

Try to show up as early as you can, since the special Chinese Heritage Night bobblehead might run out! You should run to the upper deck and claim one as soon as you can.

Our seats are in left field lower box, so bring a glove or at least get ready to duck some fly balls!
