Saturday Full Scrimmage in Set....Bring

Green Grenade II · September 1, 2005

I will be bringing canned goods, clothes, and other items I can pack into my Windstar. I will be there early. This has already been posted about NT athletes helping with disaster relief for those displaced and all the unspeakable tragedy in New Orleans and in Missisippi. I am so proud our team is doing this. I'm always proud of North Texas....but this is so like us to do this.

It would also be great if we can reset the LSU game for October 29th, moving the Louisiana-Monroe game to December 3rd. It all depends on how relief and rebuilding and life saving efforts go! For now, my hopes and prayers are for all the victims of this natural disaster.

Ok... so what time is the scrimmage? I'd really like to be there (with my donation of course). The American Red Cross suggests donating money, rather than food or clothing items, to help the relief efforts.

However, the American Red Cross does say that if you're donating to local charities, canned goods and the like are excellent donations. I'm planning to call the Athletic Office tomorrow and find out to whom they are donating the items. If they're donating them to the Red Cross, bring money for the scrimmage. If they're donating to local refugees, food is an excellent idea. I'll post what I find out, unless anyone beats me to it.
