Today was the big NW Trails Alliance swap meet in Portland. It’s the biggest and best one Portland puts on. The space was donated by Sandbox Studio which made it possible for over 70 vendors to sell their wares/product in the converted warehouse space.

Jordan Frasier, Brian Johnson, Guy Smith & new recruit Jason Moon came out to man the booth. Jordan was there 2 hrs prior to opening & manned the table 100% of time for 5 hours! Guy’s daughter had a fantastic sign made for us and we proudly displayed it.

Everyone had the option of selling stuff for their own profit but the bulk of the selling was fund-raising for the Oregon Syndicate. Frosty’s accounting classes are paying off as he kept an accurate count of what was sold & for how much. Altogether, the Pac NW AllStarz made $415. The money will be used towards Oregon team dues, a tent, t-shirts, etc. It’s a great accomplishment seeing as how we didn’t sell a full bike & nothing for over $50.

If you’re wondering what I was doing, I ended up managing the event so I was busy running around making vendors happy, taking out the trash, unplugging toilets, delegating tasks, etc.

Upcoming Events:

• Oregon Syndicate team meeting on Saturday, 3/20 or Sunday, 3/21
