Well Hung
Over the next couple of weeks (since we’re 16 days out) we’ll be hanging “Traverse BAIT” from the ceiling in the Boundary Bay brewpub. The prizes are to encourage YOU to raise money for local and regional non-profits. Here are our favorites:

Nooksack Salmon Enhancement Association
Kulshan Community Land Trust
Whatcom Land Trust
Sustainable Connections
Whatcom Parks & Recreation Foundation
People for Puget Sound
Conservation Northwest
In order to get the stuff across town this morning, I had to put plastic bag man (thank you Iain D. & RE Sources) on my Kulshan Cycles TREK Lime and I rode the new single-speed REI Novara Buzz One bike to Boundary.

Next, while being heckled by staff, plastic bag man as adroitly placed in the cockpit of the Delta 10 and the Buzz made it up there as well. (this was done before opening, so none of these people were able to witness the “process”). We ran out of time to get the rest of the REI Adventure Package up there. Stay tuned to see what other great stuff is out there to encourage fundraising.

GO FISH!
