Just Cauz
My friend Mike Whalley is a member of Just Cauz and asked me to volunteer my time at their 2nd Annual Casino Night & Charity Auction. The evenings charity event was to help kids. To check out more information on the organization go to: www.justcauz.org. I'm sure they could use some more good people.
Oh, I found out during the evening that the organization was started by a Roosevelt alumni named Peter Finnely. He was a couple classes ahead of me. I saw and recognized him but didn't introduce myself.
The evening seemed more like a good place to meet 30 something successful singles in the Seattle area than a charity. Just a bunch of young professionals needing to spend some money and mix and mingle with other single Seattle folk. I met a couple people who asked if I was a part of some online singles mixer deal. So I suppose I was in the right place...
My volunteer duty consisted of being behind the bar from 7-10 pm working the kegs. I just had to keep pouring as the servers would grab the keg cups and pass them out to the paying patrons. Can't say it was too tough, as I've poured a few beers in my day. It's all for the kids you know.
My roommate Sarah was there with her boyfriend Kyle, Josh and Melissa came, Peter and his wife showed up, Marco was there, and a couple hundred other good locals. Good times for a good cause.
I gambled for a little while but am not much of a gambler. Since I once again was going skiing the next day, I wrapped it up around 11:30 pm and went home.
