Join us on Thursday, June 26th at Casa Mia in Downtown Olympia for the OlySports.com World Cup viewing party.
The United States takes on Germany on the big 9×6 projection screen with a spot in the knockout stage on the line. The Ghana/Portugal game will be on one of the smaller TVs so we can keep an eye on that important contest.
Casa Mia will be serving a breakfast menu with muffins, donuts, juice, coffee and a special breakfast pizza that sounds delicious. We’ll have prizes and…..well, you know that you won’t get any work done at your job during the game. Just take a couple hours off and come on down.

Kharlton Belmar scored a pair of goals in the second half to lift the Portland Timbers U-23s to a 3-0 win over the Sounders U-23s in front of 1,012 soccer fans at Tumwater Stadium.
Belmar, who will be a senior at Virginia Commonwealth in the fall, broke a scoreless tie in the 58th minute when he won a loose ball in the box that got behind Sounders keeper Jeff Caldwell. 13 minutes later, Will Seymore scored off of a corner kick to give the Timbers a two goal lead and Belmar finished it off and recorded a brace with another goal in the 85th minute.
Caldwell was peppered all afternoon as the Timbers racked up 18 shots with the Sounders keeper making seven saves. Conversely, Timbers keeper Justin Luthy only had to make one save in the shutout. It was just the second win of the season for the Portland squad and they move to within a point of the Sounders in the table.
The contest at Tumwater Stadium was a fundraiser for Blackhills FC with the majority of the 1,000+ in attendance affiliated with the youth soccer program. Blackhills president Scott Kee said that his organization raised “a couple thousand dollars” on Sunday.
