Thursday Night On The Square

WE'RE BACK!
TNOTS has been our major summer fundraiser, and we have been a fixture at at Palmdale Poncitlan Square for years. We have found insurance coverage, and are returning after a 3 year hiatus. Look for us in our new spot, as we lost our old place next to the stage.

We will be selling watermelon, beverages, and various snacks. The profits from this will go towards our vessel maintenance, such as the required bottom paint job on the new Trawler, and then into the fuel fund, and to provide scholarship funding for crew members to go to advanced training opportunities, such as the SEAL leadership training program.

TNOTS runs on Thursday evenings on the following dates:

June 30
July 7, 14, 21, 28
August 4, 11, 18

Event Hours: 1700 - 2100 (5 - 9 pm)

CITY REGULATIONS
Set up must be completed by 5:00 opening time.
Must stay open until 9:00 closing time.
Can only sell approved items.

CREW/ADULT SCHEDULING:
We need a minimum of 2 adults on site at all times. I will be one.
Crew members whose parents don't usually drive, etc, talk it up... this is an excellant opportunity for them to help out at a really fun event!

We need at least one crew member to meet me at my house at 4:00 pm to help load up.
Crew should be prepared to work the whole evening, and can rotate in and out of the booth, adequate staffing permitting, to go dance, cruise and shop the other booths, and get dinner. If a critical issue, such as summer school homework requires it, individual exceptions can be made, and crew can schedule split shifts as follows:
EARLY CREW: 4:00 - 8:00 meet at Skip's house to help load
LATE CREW: 5:30 - 9:30 finish tear down and unload at Skip's

We understand there are already some crew out of town on vacation. We will just need to make sure the others show up to adequately cover your booth.
Crew and adult participation will be tracked, to provide proportional credit towards things like free rides on the trawler, reduced event registrations, etc. through this year.
