Thanks for the heads-up about this organization, memason.
Nice one CF - I'm a sucker for the local kids and their teams ....Salvation Army at Christmas, the very best. I look at it this way, I think nothing of spending $20+ on an Estee Lauder Mascara or Lipstick, so what would a $1.00 do to me! As for the Salvation Army at Christmas, I donate every time I pass them, usually 50cents at a time, don't even miss it, but someone needs it more than I do.
