“Wicked Hot Super Spies and the Women Who Love Them” – The Kamchatka Project’s James Bond Casino Night at KEEN

Wednesday, March 17th, 2010

KEEN hosted The Kamchatka Project’s James Bond Casino night, themed, ‘To Russia with Love.’ More than 100 tickets to the event were sold, which featured a silent auction and several casino games. People bought chips/raffle tickets in order to play. All proceeds were raised for The Kamchatka Project

In Summer 2010, an international team of whitewater kayakers — dubbed The Kamchatka Project — will attempt three source-to-sea first descents of steep rivers along the volcanic spine of Russias Kamchatka Peninsula, home to nearly ¼ of the worlds remaining salmon runs.
