Please let me know if you have any ideas for the event or contributions for the raffle or want to help out.

BACKGROUND:

Pay It Forward (PIF) raises $ throughout the year in a variety of ways (AOTY/DOTY registration fees, annual PIF Paddle and Raffle, donations, raffles put on by events like GS and FreshKats etc).

Historically, this $ has gone to NCKA members dealing with cancer or other serious illness or tragedy.

Here is a breakdown of how much $ has been generated via PIF efforts over the years and where the $ has gone:

2010: $6,000+ given to Mooch
2011: $9,000+ given to Mooch/Shicken
2012: $8,000+ given to Mooch/Shicken
2013: $10,000+ given to Mooch
2014: $15,300+ given to Porky's daughter Hailey
2015: $21,901.40 ($1,120 to PAL, $10,360 to Rob102's dad Jack Forney, $10,421.40 in reserve)
2016: $3,000 given to MontanaN8V, approx. $10,000 still in reserve (4/5 balance is $11,638.59 but ~$1,500 is earmarked for 2016 AOTY/DOTY prizes)

Vic, I always lock down a few campsites at Veteran's Memorial Campground for the homies during PIF wknd and MBK derby wknd. They're not reservable (first-come first-served etc), so I grab the sites on Friday morning before going to work. Or, if necessary there's an empty lot across the street from my house that you can park in front of.

Brian, I'd offer the same but we know you won't make it hahaha!

Eric, your fishing and guiding skills are applicable in any water. It's the same Pacific ocean in Monterey as Shelter Cove. So, if you have to turn it into a work wknd in order to attend...I will help out however I can (share spots, locations, be your assistant, etc). I bet there are potential clients who live closer to the Bay Area, who would love to go on a guided trip in Monterey with the famous LoletaEric!!!

I tried out the BooneDox Drifter hammock stand last weekend with a little travel hammock that Mooch gave to me...

Works so good!!!

Packs up into a little carrying bag that you can carry over your shoulder super easy.

Great prize!!

If we get out there and it is too rough to safely hang out by red can we can always announce on radio and raft up/chill closer to beach.

There is a yellow buoy close in right in front of beach that could work for a meeting spot, or just by the mooring buoys over by the sail boats.

I am optimistic that it will be ok though.

I don't know what a G2 is, but it must be awesome to get everybody so excited!

The wife and I are heading down tomorrow afternoon. I had a nasty POP or snap in my lower back the other day. Very painful... Don't know if I'll be able to load or unload my kayak. Might just leave it at home and chill all day.

We're looking forward to a fun time!

The G2 is Santa Cruz Kayaks' brand new sit-on-top kayak that is fully redesigned & upgraded from the previous model, the SC Raptor. The new G2 kayak has a ton of great features, with the most notable being a removable center pod that can accept the Hobie Mirage Drive. So you can paddle OR pedal without compromising the paddling characteristics of a traditional paddle yak (can I get an AMEN if you ever tried to paddle a Hobie Outback?!) It's truly a paddle yak that you can also pedal.
I'll take some pics in a moment.

Does anybody want a campsite tonight? I just nabbed the last site @ Vets Memorial for Jim Rockfish. But he will be arriving tomorrow afternoon--staying thru Sunday. I don't want the site to be unoccupied tonight because someone might try to steal it. So let me know if you want a campsite!!

We arrived Around midnight, and fished the wharf until about 4 when folks started showing at MBK. I was not feeling well, so Backwoods Badass would be making his first solo trip in salt without pops. Zisco stepped right up and took Cody under his wing. Fishing was slow for most everyone, but back on the beach, the food and good times were rolling! My phone died, so only took a few photos. Thank you all again.

It was really nice to meet you Rich, I'm glad you and Cody had a great time! I wouldn't be surprised if he's still asleep, he had a hellacious paddle back in!

Thanks Jim and everyone for putting this on, it was great to get down and meet you guys, finally! Definitely going to have to step my game up and get to more events!
