Eagleshire wants to challenge the other EH parks to a donation drive. We are going to be collecting donations of non-perishable food items, toiletries, twin sized sheets and blankets, gently used business/work clothes, and cash. For what you ask? Read below:

At my job, I work with teenagers who are in danger of dropping out of school. Many have backgrounds that are hard for me to even imagine. Many more are using and addicted to various drugs. So I have a soft spot for places that seek to help people overcome addictions.
I read this
Article a couple years ago, but hadn't done anything with it. But I decided today that I would try to get people together to see if we could help.
The 24 Hour Club in Dallas is taking donations of both non-perishable food items and other essentials (look on the website for details).
If you are interested, PM me here or e-mail me at
harmond@cfbisd.edu.

So start collecting at your local park and the weekend before MR we will co-ordinate to deliver the donations to the 24 Hour Club. Thanks to any and all who participate. And this need not be limited to park members. If you have family, friends, co-workers, people you dislike, whatever, who you want to share this info with and ask them to donate, feel free.
