Raffle rave @ the Party in the Pocket Park

Dear neighbors and friends,

It’s me again with one more reason to celebrate your extraordinary neighborhood with your neighbors tomorrow, Saturday, 9-13 at our Party in the Pocket Park.

We know everyone that comes will leave the party with great memories, good new friends, some sweet swag, and a deeper appreciation of what makes our neighborhood such a special place to live.  But you could come away with a lot more if you participate in our raffle rave.  Each of the businesses below has generously donated some astonishingly cool gifts to support our neighborhood that we’ll be raffling off throughout the party.  This could be your ticket (and we hope you’ll dig deep and buy a lot of them) to a better life.  

*Delmonico’s Heritage Butcher	*Old School Pizzeria	*Ralph’s and Bayview Thriftway
*Eastside Barber Company	*Oly Float	*Taqueria La Bendicion
*Hood Canale	*Olympia Food Coop	*Vic’s Pizzeria
*Lee’s Barber Shop	*Olympia Little Theatre
*Lost & Found Crafts	*Olympia School of Advanced Skin Care

We also want to express our deep appreciation to our other business and community partners for their support of our neighborhood.  Without their generous help, we could not have thrown this party.  

*Balsey Sign Company	*Kiperts Korner Feed	*San Francisco Street Bakery
*City of Olympia	*Pope John Paul II High School	*Unitarian Universalist Church of Olympia
*Convenience Corner	*Roosevelt School

Last, but certainly not least, we want to express our gratitude to the other great NE neighborhoods associations – Bigelow, Bigelow Highlands, and East Bay Drive – that are part of the Olympia NE Neighborhoods Alliance or ONNA,  This party is to celebrate our partnership and the work we’ve done together, including our decades long effort to transform the Bethel – San Francisco Street corner into a beautiful and vibrant neighborhood center.

I look forward to celebrating with you tomorrow!

With appreciation and in community,

Peter Guttchen
