Donations, donations, donations

We are now coming down the homestretch in preparing for Joe's fundraiser.

As most of us are keenly aware, fundraisers derive the majority of their
proceeds from donations of products and services that are raffled and/or auctioned during the fundraising event itself. We have received many wonderful items to date and are very thankful to those companies, organizations and individuls who have so kindly given.

To guarantee a successful outcome for the benefit of Joe and his family, each of us
in this last week must make every effort to secure additional donations. Take an hour or two out of this week or during your normal routines to do so.

Gift certificates from your favorite restaurant, 18 holes of golf at the local country club, a day at the spa, gift cards from many of the stores and markets to name just a few.... or a laptop, bicycle, camera or MP3 player.

If you have any donations that need to be picked up or dropped off, just let us know and we will make arrangements.

Meetings are being held this week at 7:00 pm at xpedx, 6485 Ridings Rd. just off Carrier Circle Monday and Thursday evenings. We would like to get the majotity of donations in by Thursday evening.

Again, thanks to all of those who have helped thus far and thanks to those who are
helping Joe down the homestretch.
