Let's pack this lot and really raise some $$$ for the Kids at St. Judes Childrens Research Hospital!

We will also be selling Crusin' for St Judes shirts / hats / pins.

If anyone has a membership on ANY of the other forums, Please post this up as an event. OPEN at ALL cars / trucks / bikes! Lets pack this lot and raise some serious cash for the Kids at St. Judes! Thank God that my kids never needed thier assistance, but be aware it's there for anyone! What a great organization, funded solely by people like you and I out of the goodness of our hearts! The Corvette Forum is on target to donate $60K this year! Thanks in part to all who have attended our Corvettes and Coffee's this year! The fine staff at Grossinger is matching our donations up to $500.00. I would like to take advantage of thier generosity!
I also have St. Jude's tee shirts / hats / pins available.
Thanks for your support!

Here is a link to the Facebook event page for Cars & Coffee (Benefit for St. Jude's)
If you have a Facebook account please RSVP there so we can try to get a count on how many are coming out. We don't want to run out of coffee!!!

Lets PACK the lot!!!

Thanks for your help

I just received 40 shirts, 10 hats and 40 pins from St. Judes!

I will be accepting donations for these as follows:

Shirts $20.00
Hats $15.00
Pins $5.00

They all say Crusin' for St. Judes and are all black.
I have left
4 XXL
10 XL
8 L
5 M
8 hats
39 pins

If you would like one, please PM me and I will put one aside for you.
I will collect and hand out at the next Corvettes and Coffee.
I am NOT selling these, all proceeds are going straight to St. Judes as a donation!

Thanks for your continued support!

An honest mistake I guess. Probably not easy to upload to your facebook thingy with long fingernails and high heels while driving a supercharged C5 and yelling at a kid!

Irene looked into the time thing on the Facebook link, seems that somehow it is picking up West Coast time as it was copied onto the IB forum page. The hours are 8 til 11 AM.

Irene also has contacted several news stations and newspaper along with several radio stations. Maybe we can get a local station to stop by and pass out swag????
