Spaghetti Dinner
Start: 5:30 PM
End: 7:30 PM

Join us for our annual Spaghetti Dinner on Friday, July 26th at 5:30pm at RSM, for some team bonding and to carb-load before DCSL! We'll also announce the Swim-a-Thon winners (most laps and most $ raised, by age group).

Please RSVP (by Tuesday night) and then sign up to bring food to share. Choose to bring spaghetti noodles, bread, sauce, or salads (enough for 10-15 ppl per item). It takes a lot to feed Polar Bear families! Don't forget to LABEL your crock pots, utensils, serving bowls and trays so we can get those back to you.

Please check in with Jessica Willemsen on Friday to get your job credits if you are working a setup, serving, or cleanup shift.

Sign-ups are now OPEN; RSVPs are due by Tuesday night for planning purposes. If you're planning to come, please do sign up to contribute food or a job shift.

The event starts on Friday at 5:30pm. and ends by 7:30pm. Plan to bring your own chairs and get comfy picnic-style around the deck. We will feed swimmers first, then adults. There is NO SWIMMING!
