NWSFS Events
Once in a while we’ll go do something special. These “specials” can range from a day trip to visit Mt. St. Helens or a weekend in Las Vegas to a one day bookstore crawl.
We have ventured out on:
- VolcanoTrek Tour ( Mt. St. Helens )
- Las Vegas Trek to the Star Trek Exhibit
- Dinner Cruise on Puget Sound
- Budget Harbor Tour (Ferry ride on Puget Sound & a Brown Bag Lunch)
- Cruise to Western Caribbean
We also had a Snow Day and a movie outing to THX1138 at the Cinerama and each year we have Powell Trek (a yearly shopping trek to Powell's Book store in Portland ).
Send your suggestions to our Vice Chair at (club-info AT nwsfs.org) or all the club hotline at 360-438-0871
Upcoming Special Events
Powell Trek 2008
Saturday May 3, 2008
Hey folks, it’s time to visit our all-time favorite bookstore in Portland, OR. Please join us Saturday, May 3th and we’ll carpool down to Portland! Since it is a fairly long drive, we’ll meet first at the Citrak’s house near Olympia around 9:30 a.m. where we’ll divide into carpool for the trek down. We’ll stop mid-way for lunch and arrive at Powell’s in the early afternoon. Then we’ll all shop until we drop or until 5:00 p.m. (whichever comes first), have dinner and begin the trek back to Olympia.
Many of you have already indicated that you want to go (Yay!) and some of you have also offered to drive (Bless you!) but if you HAVE NOT let us know you plan on coming, please do so by May 1st- this will ensure we have a spot for you in the caravan if you would prefer not to drive. Please RSVP to club-info at nwsfs.org, or this email or the NWSFS Hotline 360-438-0871, so we don’t leave anyone behind.
