Toys For Tots Dive...Nov. 15
« on: October 16, 2008, 09:14:22 AM »
Anyone interested in diving Vortex Springs November 15 in an effort to collect Toys for Tots????
The idea is to get together and dive and have fun, but have everyone bring a toy to be donatied to Toys for Tots.
As a mother of 3, I know how much my kids love Christmas and I hate to think of the children less fortunate without anything for Christmas...let me know who's up for it.
Thanks,
Kristi

Oops, sorry Kristi. I forgot I have a car show in Ocean Springs that day. I'm out.

Not a problem...if not many folks can come, we may can just try to set up another diver's night out dinner and collect the toys.
Thanks,
Kristi

I'm kinda working on one for ABWA that same day. I'm e-mailing Mr. Wayne and trying to figure out a few details. If it falls through, I might consider heading to Vortex if Frank is up for it.

If any of you all are looking for a spot to drop off your toys.  We have drop off boxes here at the fire station.  Shrek

Hi,
I would have liked being there but have planned to go skydiving with a friend on that day. Getting together for a group dinner sounds great and I would love the chance to help Santa out.
Just let me know when and where.
Thanks,
Mike

Yeah, maybe we could do that. If the dive doesn't work out, maybe we could get together like some of us did this month for a night out (like at the Shed) and bring TforT gifts then.

Thanks for all the responses...Since so many folks have different things going on, let's try to make it another Diver's Night Out and bring the toys then.
My daughter has been asked to sing for a community service project that evening, so it would actually have ended up being difficult to dive and make it back (but, I coulda done it :))
Let me know what day and time are good for most. How 'bout  The Shed again since I missed out last time :(
Anyway, Shrek, which fire dept do you work at?  I have lotsa friends that are firemen?
Thanks again,
Kristi

How about the weekend before Thanksgiving? Either Friday the 21st or Saturday the 22nd? Being close to Thanksgiving, everybody ought to be in a "Christmasy Giving" mood :icon_santa:
 
The Shed sounds good! Barbeque :snorting:, Beer :occasion14:, and Blues :headbang:!
