Marathoning: Drink ‘n Donate
Important announcements are afoot, gentle reader:
First and foremost, I’d like to give a hearty handshake to my first donor, Nick Stableski. In addition to being a fine bocce player, Nick is always there with a considerate and humorous remark or link in his Gmail. Nick came through in a major way to get the snowball tumbling down the hill with a great donation to the effort. While I’d like to be able to congratulate Nick for singlehandedly coming up with the dough to cure blood cancers, there’s still a lot of ground to cover. There’s plenty of time for you to hop into the action and sponsor me.
Or you’d prefer to have few drinks too, come and hang out at our team fundraiser on July 8th at 6:30. Angela Carola, another member of our motley band, put a bar night together to help Team Crain reach out to our industry pals.
Ang sez:
…we will be holding an Industry Social at Red Sky on East 29th between Park and Madison on Wednesday at July 8th at 6:30pm.
We will charge attendees $20 for a bracelet when entering. Anyone wearing the bracelet will have extended happy hour prices for drinks; all of the money from bracelet sales will go to Team in Training. To help fill the bar with his industry friends and fans, Ken Wheaton has agreed to guest bartend from 6:30-7:30.

So that’s the skinny. I’ll be wheeling out my finest party tricks, except for the one that involves the cocktail stirrer, that was retired. Here’s the event’s Facebook page, if you’re into seeing who’s coming and a handy ical reference. Hope to see you there!
