Rehashing some of last weeks greatness, we present Bizaro World part 2.
The same but not, left but right, up but down. Wednesday style… enjoy!🤟
Love Your Wednesday Night Volunteers
Going to take a sec to thank all our WNWC staff and volunteers. None of this fun can happen without the continued contributions from so many of our wonderful tribe. So please thank them, hug them, Hi-five them or however you do it. ❤️
Lori and Mike Brazel have been part of the Wed Night family from day 1. Year after year (12 of them now), they put in countless hours under the tents, behind the computers, on the trails and honestly doing whatever needs to get done. Thank you Brazel’s for brining your stoke every single night. You are pillars of this community.
Jason Dougherty has been helping us gosh, 10 years? Jason anchors course set-up week to week, our CTC (Caution Tape Captain). Need to learn the flow? He’s your guy. He also answers your registration questions, tears down the course and shows up to every work party. Thank you Jason for your years of strength and traffic bearing commitment… and for keeping it real with that High Post! 😉
Taylor Petterson
This is Taylor’s 4th year as part of the team. Taylor was a stand out a few years ago, filling the early course set-up shift. He then took a Van Life break, got married and is now back because well, he’s awesome. Taylor still comes early and stays late, running course duty and timing. Besides being the smartest man under our tents, he rides bikes good too. We are fortunate to have his intellect week after week.
Yuri Rabena is basically the keeper of SeaTac Park. Yuri puts in countless days and hours building, cutting-in and maintaining the trails we all enjoy. On Wed Nights he can be found (near the coolers) racing, tearing down what we build and generally keeping the evening Tiki vibes alive (near the coolers). As you can see👇 Yuri’s skills don’t end on two wheels. Thank you sir for your endless energy and time spent keeping this place a float
The Partridge Family
Vince, Brenda, Addison and Brooklyn. The best humans on earth. Vince started racing with us back in 14′. One day he’s like, “Need help?”. Years and some long grey and orange hairs later, he has not stopped. With Vince comes his two wonderful daughters, Addison and Brooklyn. See our last email for their latest (spoiler, they are off to college). These two overachievers can be found managing evening timing duties and helping tear down the show. Thank you Partridge fam for all your contributions and endless smiles. Don’t ever stop being awesome.
Ryan Stucky has always been there when we need him. Year after year he’s shown up to help the show go on. Course help, registrations help, taking out the garbage. He’s down for whatever. Now with a family of his own, we get to indoctrinate little Theo Stucky as the next gen of WNWC child labor! 😆
Bryen Graver is our media man. Liking all the fun the Socials lately? That’s all Mr. Graver. He’s got a great eye for catchy content and sound brand building. Look for the camera next time out. You may make the cover of his next banner post. Thank you “Danger” Graver for all your wonderful support!
Mark Spencer-Coons, our Wolf Man. He stays off the radar, out of the pictures but quietly cleans up after our messes. Look for his imported Subaru “truck” or linger long enough near the keg. He’s closer than you think. Still can’t find him? He’s probably out picking up the piles of orange cones and folding signs left behind. Thank you “Sparky Marky” for your years of contributions and clean up.
And a final shout out to young Olin Luckey. He’s 13, loves bikes and generally wants to pitch in. Stacking volunteer hours or cones in the trailer, we’ll take it! The force is strong in this one. Thank you young man, we all appreciate your hard work.
There are others who help create Wed Nights. You know who you are. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. This community is what keeps these events coming back year after year. Do you want to volunteer with us? We’d love to have you. Contact us for opportunities.
See you at the park!
