i am trying to get a sponsor for some vynle stickers (NWTOYRUN 06) this year. i think it would be sweet. not big, just small ones. but if we can get those i'm sure we could sell them for $1 and make more donation for the toys for tots.......
i also have a friend that owns Tini Bikini tanning in oly. who wants to donate 1 month tanning certificates to raffle off. talked to him today. not sure how many he will donate...... but if we raffle those for $1 more donations!!!!!!!!
just little things i've been thinking about. do you all think those are good ideas?

Hey Kanchi.. if this ends up being held at your Fred Meyer, let me know and then I can do what I can as quickly as possible to get my Fred Meyer involved also.. so with donations from my Fred Meyer, I could take whatever I get from work to your Fred Meyer.. so let me know and maybe we can get something figured out.
This is a good idea guys.. hopefully whatever day we choose to do this will be a day I have off or can get off/trade with someone!

A friend of my housemate heard what I (and we) were doing, and she wants to organize a toy drive at the University of Washington for our little shindig. Cool stuff.
Couple of things I'm confused about. Are ALL of the clubs meeting up and driving down as one big group? If so, does the parade permit we got cover the expected 200 to 300 vehicles? Speaking of which, how did we figure 200-300 cars?
It would be nice to have all of this information on one centralized source. Perhaps setup a registry for everyone who will be attending so we can have an accurate count of participants?
