Brett H. Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 I'm not going to be able to do anything, I'm buried in snow. It'll be the end of the world fo me tonight when the 50mph winds hit later. We got alot here too... no where near what they were predicting. Makes lights really pop now. Hoping wind stay calm here so our arches over driveway stay upright. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mwhite7097 Posted December 22, 2012 Share Posted December 22, 2012 Tonight was great! On a cold, windy, rainy night, we managed to pull in over $350 for 3 half hour shows. I decided to collect all weekend for Newtown, so I hope to get close to $1000. Hope your shows are going well with all the crazy weather and thanks to George for getting this ball rolling.

Mwhite7097 Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 Blew my $1000 goal out of the water! Raised $1700 for Sandy Hook this weekend. I have a feeling St. Jude won't mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George Simmons Posted December 24, 2012 Author Share Posted December 24, 2012 We did it just Friday night. The weather was awful but we still took in $365. It might not be a pimple on a duck's butt, but thrown together with donations like what you raised at least it's a pimple. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mwhite7097 Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 Lots of drops of water will make a flood! That was about our take for Friday also but because we are here in CT, I had decided to do the whole weekend as well. Still, I was blown away by the generosity of folks. Thanks again George for getting this rolling. On Wed., I am going to contact the bank that is collecting the donations. I believe you can donate online as well. I would like to hear from others on how their donations turned out to get a rough idea on how the "decorators" fared in our combined fundraising Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mwhite7097 Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 Very nice! I changed our message back to the one that tells folks we are back collecting for St. Judes but I still get an envelope here and there for the Newtown collection. I was going to send the check in but I guess I should wait until the shows are done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
