Saturday, April 30, 6:00 p.m.:  Come party with us!

Women Outdoors—a national, nonprofit, all-volunteer organization promoting wilderness activity, leadership and outdoors skills (check out our site)—is thrilled to be sponsoring two all-women teams for the Run of the Charles race on Saturday, April 30—so thrilled, we plan to have a party afterwards to honor our mighty rowers and party with all of those in town to urge them on.

If you don't know about Run of the Charles, check it out here. This is New England's largest canoe and kayak race, held every April, put on by the Charles River Watershed Association to showcase the ongoing improvements in the Charles River, while drawing 1,500 paddlers and hundreds of spectators to enjoy a day on the river.

Women Outdoors members are traveling from as far away as New York to participate or cheer WO paddlers on, and we want to hang with them! So if you're interested in hanging with us, meeting the paddlers, eating a little food, and learning more about our organization, we would love to see you.

The party will be at Women Outdoors headquarters, aka my house, in Jamaica Plain, starting around 6:00 on race day.

If you'd like to come, please RSVP to me at lisavaas@gmail.com, and I'll send the address and directions.

We look forward to seeing you!
