| Raise the Paddle |
This year's Raise the Paddle is for our Sanctuary. What better way to show how we feel about OUUC than taking care of the space that nurtures our souls and hearts? This room has served our needs well over the years. It has provided us opportunities for both calm meditation and joyful celebration. It has held us as we connect with each other. It has shielded us from the weather, though it took on some ceiling stains; we have grown and modernized, and have hung cables from its ceilings; it has weathered the years with us, and the walls have faded and peeled; the carpets show the effects of many a coffee spill and muddy shoe. We can’t rebuild and expand to our hearts' content at this time, but by adding some new paint and new carpets, and by concealing some cables, we can bring the Sanctuary back to its former glory and dignity. Together we can walk into the Sanctuary with pride, knowing that we have taken care of this special place that is the spiritual home of our community. | 1 | -65 | 005000.0 | 5,000 | .0001E7 | 10 | ||

| 2nd Annual Shelton Homebrew Boot Camp |
Join Brewmaster Brian Walsh at his stainless steel brewery in Shelton to learn how to brew a 15 gallon all-grain batch of “Jack’s Nostalgia”, his take on a pre-Prohibition ale. On auction night each winning bidder will receive a copy of the recipe to be used, a growler and the esteemed title of Assistant Brewer. Assistant Brewers will be guided through the major stages of the brewing cycle: Grain Bill; Water Prep; Milling; Mash-in; Yeast Prep; Sparging; Boiling; Hop Additions; Chilling; Yeast Pitching; Fermentation; Conditioning; Yeast Harvesting; Kegging; Sampling and Clean-up. This entire process usually takes about 6 weeks: but through the magic of compressed time as pioneered by Julia Child, we can do it in one day. Yes, I said all in one day! On Boot Camp day, we will work with 3 different batches of the same beer. The brew team will begin batch #3 and take it to the Fermentation stage; batch #2 will have been prepared a few weeks earlier and have completed the Fermentation stage, and we will use it for Conditioning and Yeast Harvesting. Batch #1 will also have been prepared several weeks earlier and be used to demonstrate Kegging & Sampling. A bonus for this Boot Camp will be SAUERKRAUT. During the Boiling stage, the Brewmaster will demonstrate Sauerkraut making using the world famous Ron Sanderson lactic acid methodology. Boot Camp starts at 9:30 and we will be finished around 4:00. Lunch will be served, probably during the Mash-in protein/starch conversion rests. (I’m thinking pub food here). At the end of the day, each Assistant Brewer will take home a growler of beer drawn from batch #1. Six (6) weeks later they will receive a quart of beautiful Sauerkraut. Assistant Brewers must wear boots and promise to be very safety conscious; we will be working with fire, hot water and heavy buckets. Boot Camp day will be in late August/Early September, rain or shine. Assistant Brewers are encouraged to participate in the selection of a date suitable to all involved. Questions? Contact Brian Walsh @ 402-2008. | 3 | -1 | 000075.0 | 75 | .00001E7 | 1 | ||

| Wanna be a "LO HNTR?" | My car's license plate is LO HNTR, because that innocuous looking little Subaru is especially equipt for driving forest roads, hunting for old forest fire lookout peaks. I have been to most of the several hundred (lookout buildings and sites)in western Washington. You (and your party) can join me for a day of adventurous lookout hunting, or we could take a short hike to one of several lookout cabins on high peaks with amazing views.

| Fifth Principle Dinner |
The UU Fifth Principle calls the “the use of the democratic process within our congregations and in society at large.” Apply that principle to this OUUC auction dinner: you get to decide the ingredients!. “Iron Chefs” Joe Shorin and Jeff Goltz will prepare a dinner for 8 guests using the ingredients that the successful bidders choose – kind of like the television show “Iron Chef” (http://www.foodnetwork.com/shows/iron-chef-america.html) except Joe and Jeff will be cooperating, not competing with each other. (How UU is that?) The successful bidders will assemble their choices for ingredients for appetizers, salad, main course, and sides and, on the morning of July 19, 2015, email those to Joe and Jeff. They will shop for the ingredients, concoct recipes using those ingredients and prepare and serve dinner at one of their homes that evening at 5:30 p.m. Three caveats: (1) the selected ingredients must be readily available in Thurston County, (2) they must be ingredients, the consumption of which was legal before December 9, 2012 (you get the point here) and (3) the chefs may also use standard staples (flour, sugar, milk, eggs, etc.) and spices. | 8 | 1 | 000060.0 | 60 | .0004E7 | 40 | 7/19/15 5:30 PM | |

| Beer Tasting at Skep & Skein pub |
Come to a local westside pub to get together with friends and try a variety of craft beers and ciders on tap. Everything from IPA's to Belgian's to Porter's. Six 5 oz. pours for six people. 15 beers and 1 cider on tap, rotating regularly. (You can also buy bottles from a huge selection of beers, hard ciders and meads). Bitter? Hoppy? Chocolaty? Aged in bourbon barrels? Fruity, locally crafted ciders? You'll have a hard time deciding as you discover great beer and fellowship. Night of auction each of the six winners may take home a 5 oz. Skep & Skein glass and a growler card (which they can activate later if they ever want to buy growlers. Otherwise, it's a business card for the pub). One winner may take the $100 gift card, on behalf of the entire group, and bring it on the day of the tasting. Or Debby can hold onto it and present it to the pub on April 19. NOTE: If this date doesn't work, we can reschedule. Donated by the Trause's and Pattin's. | 6 | 0 | 000100.0 | 100 | .0001E7 | 10 | 4/19/15 3:00 PM | |

| Introduction to Reiki |
A great opportunity to experience this deeply relaxing and healing energy work. It is hands-on but non-manipulative. Individuals receive the session fully clothed. Reiki is an ancient Japanese form of hands-on healing that was rediscovered in the late 19thC by a man named Mikao Usui. Reiki stimulates the immune system response similar to acupuncture. It flows through the meridians (energy pathways) that traverse the whole body. It soothes the nerves and calms the mind. Times and dates to be arranged. Two 1 1/2 hour sessions in June's private home studio. Donor: June Kerseg-Hinson | 2 | 0 | 000050.0 | 50 | .00025E7 | 25 | ||
