We have another event in the works. We are planning to take some heroes out on Oct 20, 2012 for a Chum Salmon SlayRide.
This event will require a 1:1 Volunteer/Guide to Hero ratio because the guides will need to be anchored and the heroes kayak will be clipped to their guide and released when fighting a fish. So, our volunteer head count will determine how many heroes we will be able to take. We will also need a few extra volunteers to paddle around taking pictures, to help as a guide if another guide needs a break as well as help getting kayaks to and from the water.
If anyone is interested in helping please let me know. The HOW NWest Tribe is meeting tonight to discuss details.

Sounds awesome, if I can make it I will bring the TI and do whatever you need: photos, snack shuttle, anchor point (see photo), etc.

NWKA, we still need a few volunteers to help guide. You'll be fishing at the same time, and we will be sticking to a 1 to 1 ratio.
Spare a few hours for a good cause and make "support the troops" more than a catch phrase!

What's the start time and end time for this on the 20th. I have to work but will look for someone to cover for me so I can help out.

I would live to volunteer and will know if I can get the day off work sometime this week. I could do any of the above from taking pics to running around helping to being a guide although I am fairly new to kayak fishing and am by no means an accomplished yak angler. I know I am new here but I am very interested getting involved with HOW it sounds like a great group

Please let us know as soon as possible to confirm that you will be able to volunteer for this event. I have some paperwork to send you that you will need to print, fill out, sign and bring with you to the event to help save time in the morning (but will bring extra copies). We will also be providing a packed lunch and drinks for everyone and need a head count. If you plan on volunteering, please send me a PM with your cell and email.
We would like volunteers to meet 6am at Oakland Bay to help get gear prepped and go over a few things, participants will show by 8am and hopefully we're in the water by 8:30am. Head back in by 2pm.

Where will the launch be?...WDFW parking area? If so, consider the tide for that day:
Low 4:50AM -1.7
High 11:31AM 14.5
Low 5:50PM 6.1
Launching in the morning with water gushing through the narrow channel might be challenging for paddlers.
What are the current counts of participants and volunteers? I will most likely be there, so I can help.

Yup, parking at the same place we fished last year. We're going to rig up some anchored floats. We will do a test run this Sunday if you'd like to join us.

Anthony I can pick you up, but its gonna be really early. I need to be at Oakland Bay by 6am to meet the rest of the team and get gear set up. You'll have to squeeze in with 2 other guys in the back seat.

I don't really care how early as long as I can still go fishing.

Kewlness, how many ?? still in transit between coasts. Damn Houston Airport all messed up....

It is a great thing you guys are doing. Thanks for letting me come along. It was good to talk with the participants and the volunteers as well as put some more faces with screen names... It was a little embarrassing to show up dress almost identically to Lee... :)

Fil has pics loaded on HOW NWest facebook. Reports to follow.
