Blanket Downtown with Love

24 Oct 2008

A really great story I wanted to point out from today’s Blade written by Kate Giammarise about Volunteers warm to Toledo ‘blanket blitz’. I remember being there last year at Tent City when the blankets were handed out, they are much appreciated and I think these volunteers as well as Trinity Episcopal Church in Toledo deserves some kudos…

    Somebody might want to check with the Mayor. If people are running around giving blankets out it’s going to really screw up his starving them out project.

    I have an idea, we tell the Mayor that it is to encourage them to be able to walk back to Detroit warmer…

    Seriously though, it’s a great cause and I applaud the volunteers and hope any of you that have time to stop by and help, does so.

    Trinity Episcopal Church is at 1 Trinity Plaza at the corner of Adams and North St. Clair streets downtown. Blanket making will be from noon to 5 p.m. tomorrow, and noon to 4 p.m. Sunday. For more information, call (419) 243-1231 or visit trinitytoledo.org.

    Come on Mike, Carty jokes are just like Jello, and you know there’s always room for more Jello…

    I hope that this event was a huge success today !!!
    lisa is very mad at both of us, sugardoodle.
    i appreciate your resolve, but this is not a 1st amendment issue. there is no ffffrreee speech to talk about.
    she just wants us to take our courtin’ elsewhere.
    it interferes with her blogsite, apparently.
    i tried the wallboard on the side of GCJ, but i don’t think it works.
    email me, and we’ll make sweet plans.
    do you like the lettermen ?
    i hear they are coming to toledo soon. . .

    don’t be talking to brian maxim.
    he knows that you are my girl and he will try to steal you from me.

    el mahico Says:

    you are toooooooo funny !
    but that idea is kinda off the hook. a bronx cheer will not get you very far with lisa, i can see that right now.
    she is a real tiger.
    elmahico@att.net
    if that does not work for you, i do not know why not.
    what is your email address ?
    do you know if this blanket event was a great success this weekend ? I hope so.
    lisa is very nice for all the publicity she gives to events that help needy people.
