RED & BLACK MIXER


We're mixing it up! The Red and Black will now be at Flatstick Pub in Kirkland, on Friday, March 8 at 6:30 pm.

Set up your carpool, buy your ticket, and practice your putting. 

Want to help? We need the following:

  • Gift cards - use your points to buy cards people want to use, like Amazon, Trader Joe's, Target, or local restaurants. 
  • Desserts! We'll be auctioning desserts at the event. This is a great way to contribute and help us raise some sweet dough. 


Please let us know what you can contribute by emailing us at president@sammamishptsa.org or by signing up at https://www.signupgenius.com/go/10C0D4FA4AF23A0F94-47027325-redblack#/.
