Summer in Seattle
So much to do, and Sounders fit into that too. The Sunday day game at the end of the month should be great! 2011 has been a great season of growth for GFC. Keep coming on down and supporting the Sounders. June also brings us closer to our away trip (sold out) to Portland in July! We have a few new Captains who are helping out and just want to say “Thank you” to them for stepping up. Claudio, Ron and Matthew will all be working in different areas as we grow! Claudio will be taking over the newsletter, Ron is working on membership council, and Matthew is working on Tifo. If you’d like to help out more, shoot Gorillafc@gmail.com an email.
Needle Workers Wanted
The Gorilla FC Tifo team is putting together a project and needs sewing machines and anyone who can run them. If you have one or want to help in putting together a large project, email gorillafc@gmail.com It will help with a great display. We will be having a sewing focused event first, followed by a painting event later this month. We are also working on two poles……so if you have an idea, come get involved. Kjell is the Tifo Captain this year.
