Trip to Seattle June 22nd
Thunder are sending two youth teams to Seattle on June 22nd, they’ll be playing against youth teams from Washington State. The teams will also be attending the Seattle Seawolves match against LA. The Seattle Seawolves are a professional rugby team playing in the MLR.
The Seawolves commissioned Thunder Director and Kwakwaka’wakw artist, John Lyall, to design special jerseys for the game. His design is shown below and you can read more on the background of the design on the Seattle Seawolves website.
Thunder Draws
In order to help pay for the trip Thunder are holding two draws. One a 50/50 draw where the winning ticket will win half the money and half the money will help support the Thunder trip and other camps this summer.
There is also a draw for a 16″ drum featuring the “Maxinux, Side by Side” artwork of John Lyall.
