Aloha PVS ‘Ohana,

Please support Polynesian Voyaging Society at West Marine’s Honolulu Store Grand Opening on Thursday, March 22, 2012, by buying and selling tickets to the event.

When: Thursday, March 22, 2012 from 6:00 – 9:00pm

Where: West Marine Honolulu - 420 N. Nimitz Highway (across from K-mart)

Cost: $10 per ticket (All profits for the tickets that we sell will go to Polynesian Voyaging Society)

-Cash or checks are accepted. Please make checks payable to Polynesian Voyaging Society

Ticket includes: 1 entry, 1 meal and 2 drinks

For every ticket sold by PVS that is used at the door, PVS gets an additional $2, so please encourage people to use their tickets and go to the event.

The evening’s festivities will include a silent and live auction, Hawaiian music, local food, and community leaders in attendance. In keeping with the company’s mission of protecting our waters and supporting local non-profits across the country, West Marine is eager to work with Hawai'i-based charities that serve the marine environment and local boating, fishing and sailing communities. “Cruising for a Cause” will earn money for local charities (like PVS) by offering them 100% of ticket proceeds for the event.

PVS also will have a booth at the event and be posting displays in the store a week before the grand opening.

Please stop by the PVS office on weekdays from 9:00am to 5:00pm to pick up and purchase tickets. We are hoping to sell a few hundred! If you pick up tickets to sell to friends and family, you must return all proceeds and leftover tickets to the PVS office no later thanMarch 9.

We hope to see you all there!
