Saturday night, Salvation Army, Blue Jackets 50/50 Raffle!

As you have probably heard, donations to The Salvation Army (and other charitable organizations) are slower than they have been in the past during this time of increased need among Columbus area residents.  To help with fund raising, the Salvation Army is holding a 50/50 raffle this Saturday night at the Blue Jackets game and I thought you or someone you know might be interested in lending a hand.  Cathy Bell (friend) is the Salvation Army's volunteer coordinator for this effort, so feel free to contact her at the e-mail listed below if you are interested.  Also, feel free to send to e-mail on to your staff, family, friends, network of associates, club members or any group or person you think may be interested.  Let me know if you have any questions and I will try to answer them.  If you lucky enough to be attending the game, please try to participate if at all possible.  Thanks.  Marty
