A little update... Talked with my contact at The Covenant House and she said that they would appreciate gift cards (example Target) so that if the kids need clothes, they can get their size (to eliminate excess)... Said that MOST kids are brought in with nothing, so things such as toiletries, undershirts, socks, t shirts, etc are nice because they are unisex (most of the time) and needed. Said that if you would like to bring sheets, they need TWIN size and they have to be new due to health concerns.
Also, lower denomination gift cards from McDonalds and etc, are nice for day trips for them to grab a bite to eat to get out of the house.
As I spoke with her, she seemed to be getting specific, but if there are items that you would like to donate the NJ ABC is December 1st and I am going to head that way and take our items up.. Canned food, $10 donation, etc are being accepted for the relief fund if that's easier for you... Anything will help, doesn't matter the amount...

Well I obviously didn't make it. This would have been four November Body Shop ABCs in a row for me but I got a pretty good cold mid-week and trained (kind of) for the first time this morning. Hope to make my first summer trip out there if you have one mid year. I hope you all had a blast though. A great crew of Animals in the O.V.
Thank you to all that came to the ABC yesterday and also to those that donated to The Covenant House!! I will be totaling up the monetary donations and heading out to get the gift cards before the weekend!! Your help and thoughtfulness is much appreciated!!!
We had 19 in attendance without most of our base group being able to be there and that makes me happy... I know we gained 3-4 new Forvm members yesterday after seeing what we are all about.
Pics will be up soon... I didn't get home until almost 7 last night, pretty much crashed from the weekend and JUST got in from school today!! I had training that only ran over 3 hours...lol. I have to go down to the shop tonight and start to organize the donations to pack out to take to Jersey. Remember, I am still taking donations for TCH and also canned food for the Jersey ABC on DECEMBER 1st!!!
Thank you again for everything... You are the best!!! Keep an eye out for more soon!!!

Hey guys and gals, I wanted to give a little heads up on this past weekend... I took our donations up to The Covenant House in Friday, trained at the NJ ABC on Saturday and took up some canned food donations collected, and come home with a crap load of inspiration!!!! AMAZING!!!
I will be posting up pics from the Covenant House, what our donations meant to him, and a little background of what will happen with our donations. I will say this now, they were SO appreciative of our help enough that even the workers there were overwhelmed....
I want to personally thank you SOOO much for all that you do to represent the Ohio Valley Chapter!!! You guys and gals are the BEST!!! Thank you for keeping Ohio ABC's running STRONG!!!
More to come!!!

Here are the pics taken from the drop off of our donations. Mrs. Mann an her staff were VERY appreciative of the donations and will be sending a personal note soon. We were able to donate FIVE $25 Target gift cards, FIVE $5 Mc Donald's gift cards, three 30 gallon bags full of clothes of various sizes, a tote FULL of beanie babies for their Mother and Child program, 4 warm Winter coats, and a large box of toiletries!!! When I dropped it off, Mrs. Mann tok me on a walk through explaining their mission statement, the programs they have, the services they provide, etc...
You all along with members of the Body Shop have pulled together and provided necessities to those that are really struggling with daily survival, let alone the issues that Sandy has caused... THANK YOU FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART.... I'm so proud to call you all my family!!!!

ABC dates for Cincy
So things are looking good for an ABC at Paramount Fitness. I spoke to Jason today and he said they are in the process of changing some things around. As long as our crowd isn't too big we should be good. What dates work for everyone? Any day should work for me. The only thing I want to do is try to set a different weekend than the ABC in Cleveland which is also TBD. Let's hear it.
Where: World Gym http://www.worldgym.com/index.php?pa...Gym&gymId=1174
Address: 5248 Cobblestone Road, Sheffield Vlg, OH 44035
When: Saturday, February 2nd - 12:00 PM
PWO Meal: Either the Chinese Buffet two doors down or Quaker Steak and Lube which is less than 5 minute drive
