First Thursday! September 9th 2004 @ Pier 63

We are going to Pier 63 Maritime (www.Pier63Maritime.com).  It's an
outside on the water place.  It's a bit tricky to find so pay attention:

It is located off of the West Side Highway across from 23rd Street.
Follow the "extension" of 23rd Street, cross the West Side Highway,
pass the Basket Ball City "Bubble" to the Pier.  If it rains, there is ample
coverage under the tents.  They do serve food.

Triple Threat: First Thursday, Diamond Dogs Ski Club, and Dynamic Outdoors
There will be a raffle of Crouch & Fitzgerald Swiss Army Gear.

The deal is:  dollar off on all drinks with a button.
