IT DIDN'T RAIN! We took in donations of $1, 156.20. !! !!
STATION #1
From the moment our Urns where hot, right on our scheduled "Go Time" (4:45pm), it was GO GO GO!
It did not stop until we actually ran out of Chocolate Mix.!
Thanks to Dan & Danne replenishing our 4 Hot Water containers from Browns S/H. They made several trips!
Thanks to Mike Clay, John Crowther for re- mixing our Urns, (I don't know how many times they did that?) which were very quickly empty, due to hundreds of served Hot Chocolate cups that Kerry, Dan and I, gave to the long line of people patiently waiting to donate.
STATION #2
Run by Steve Witiuk, Anthony, (our newest member) and Bill Lawrie , was less crazy, but they received
An amazingly generous donation of $100.00!!
