It’s crab-tacular, and it’s happening soon

All the crab-tacular details.

Time to haul out your crab-eating utensils and give them a good polishing.

The biggest fundraiser of the year for the Coupeville Booster Club goes down Saturday, Nov. 9, with a few tickets left on the open market.

The annual crab dinner and auction, which raises money for CHS sports programs, is held at the Nordic Lodge on Jacobs Rd.

Money raised goes to fund grants, scholarships, equipment and more.

Among the items people will be able to bid on are:

*Ten weeks of fresh artisanal bread from The Oystercatcher.

*Beautiful metal art created and donated from the Homecoming King’s dad or a painting party taught by his mom, who is also a talented artist.

*Power tool from Frontier Lumber.

*The (very much requested) Barrow of Beer — a wheelbarrow donated from Ace Hardware that Ron Wright lovingly fills with an amazing selection of brew.

*Condo stay at Lake Chelan.

Plus, raffles to win gift certificates to get good eats at places like Jersey Mike’s, Applebee’s, and Kapaws Iskreme.

And that’s just the tip of the iceberg. To see the whole parade of auction items, you have to be there in person.

To obtain a ticket, pop back up to the photo above and grab your contact info.

The crabs will be there, will you?

Coupeville High School’s biggest athletic fundraiser, the annual Crab Feed, is set for Nov. 9, and tickets go on sale today.

The event, which features Dale Sherman (and his velvet voice) as auctioneer, is held at the Whidbey Island Nordic Lodge Hall, which is located at 63 Jacobs Road in Coupeville.

Doors open at 4:30, though the crabs will be entering through the back door.

Tickets, which can be purchased from any Coupeville Booster Club board member, are $50 and include two free drinks.

If you don’t cross paths with the ticket holders, you can also reach them by messaging them through the Club’s Facebook page:

Along with the crab and various other tasty food products to be served, the event features an auction.

A couple of highlights include a two-hour boat tour from Saratoga Yacht Charters, a champagne and truffle reception for 12 at the Compass Rose, and a hand-made Madrona wood side table with a built-in wine rack created by CHS Athletic Director Willie Smith.

Bake a cake and help fuel a student’s education.

The Coupeville Lions Club, which gives out college aid to CHS seniors, is gearing up for its annual scholarship auction, and is looking for a few bakers to help sweeten the deal.

A key part of the auction is the Dessert Dash, and last year the Lions brought in $6,000 towards their scholarships off of the 20 desserts up for bids.

To make the event a success, the club is looking for CHS senior parents or students willing to make a dessert for the auction.

If interested, contact Diana Swisher at caddyladyl@hotmail.com or (360) 678-6215 for the specifics.

Golfers swing for charity, remembrance

Bennett Boyles

Thousands of dollars were raised last weekend at the 3rd annual Bennett Boyles Memorial Golf Tournament, continuing to spread the impact the former Coupeville resident has had on his town.

Put on by the Penn Cove Brewing Company, the event raises money for the WhidbeyHealth Foundation’s Pediatric Rehabilitation Services.

Money will also go to scholarships which the Foundation for Coupeville Public Schools will bestow on graduates of the CHS Class of 2022.

Boyles, who passed away after a long fight with cancer, was a vital part of that class.

He was a key member on Coupeville SWISH basketball teams, and one of his former teammates, Hawthorne Wolfe, continues to wear Bennett’s jersey number on his shoes while playing for CHS.

This year’s tourney was held at the Whidbey Golf Club in Oak Harbor, with close to 80 duffers participating.

A team repping Savi Bank won the tourney title, edging out 16 other groups.
