I wanted to thank you for all you did to make this year's Marston camp a great success. From the looks of things the little guys were able to get some great quality time with their dads and it seemed like everyone had a really good time. Hoopa Chief Joe Laderer did a great job as usual hosting the event so special thanks to Joe.
I wanted to just give you all some info I covered this weekend. Please forward to your guys if you could. Registration for the Ducks Game on Saturday, November 7th. Erin really needs us to get in this week to know how many tickets to get. Remember this is a family event and Chief Phil from Dakota is hosting and working on some cool things for the event: https://www.spectrumonline.net/login.aspx?clubname=ymcaoc

My name is David "Big Bow" Clarke and my son is Nathan "Little Arrow" Clarke. We along with my wife Michelle and daughters Amanda and Faith reside in Aliso Viejo. This is our third year in the program and I have also spent 5 additional years in the Indian Princess program with my oldest Amanda. I so value the time the program establishes for just me and my son to spend quality time together. I also enjoy seeing other fathers and their sons being able to have that time as well and my goal is to do what I can along with this year's tribe chiefs to make our experiences full of lifetime memories. Wahoka Chumash! If you have questions or are interested in learning more about joining the Indian Guides program, please feel free to contact me, Chumah Chief
