Seattle Mariners General Manager Jack Zduriencik was the featured special guest speaker. In total, the breakfast raised more than $60,000 for the Boys and Girls Club, with more than 325 people in attendance. There were three Mariners items up for auction that raised more than $1,500. All proceeds benefit the costs of club membership for local young people. To learn more, call Shelley Puariea  at (206) 954-2926.
