Club needs: We need a new Poggie to operate the Summer Picnic Auction. This involves accepting and holding donations through the year and setting up with help the auction display and being the auctioneer at the picnic. We all thank Glen Jurges who has coordinated the summer auction for several years and congratulate him on his retirement from the role.

Summer Picnic: Thanks to everyone who attended the Kitsap Poggie Summer Picnic in August. The auction brought in $900+ and was enough to expand Salmon in the Classroom or fund several Conservation Camp Scholarships. As mentioned above, we are looking for a new summer picnic coordinator as Glen Jurges has retired from the role; we’re always open to donations for the auction.
