CSC Winter Food Drive 2008!

[rforsythe]

I'd suggest getting to GP pretty early on Tues if you're going then. I don't know what time exactly, but they're one of the first stops and I'm not going to waste much time in the morning.

I just talked to the person running the Acquilano Leslie Inc. location and they are putting up some big numbers. They said they have about 6 large boxs full. We need to get alot more here at Grand Prix! are boxs are looking very weak! Remember if you are going to donate and you want to get a fatty discount on your next parts and accesories purchese. Stop by, any donation over 4 cans for CSC members gets you 25% off 1 time on any in stock product! Also to sweetin the pot how about the CSC member to donate the most cans at this GPM location will receive a $50.00 gift certificate to the store.

Crap! I didn't read this until just now. But I dropped off three grocery bags of canned and boxed goodies last night. Jeff is my witness! Can I get a raincheck on the 25% off discount? I hit there pretty close to closing and was drooling over the gsxr I can't afford yet instead of looking at the gear and clothing I can afford.

I got a screamin’ deal on some new Sidi’s Friday…thanks Chris! Did some new bike lusting while I was there...

I will be dropping off a bunch of stuff that I collected from the office first thing in the morning at Grand Prix. I will just put it by the front door around 7:30.

[rforsythe]

PM me with your schedule if you need help. I could get CPS here in Boulder possibly.

Jeff, if you could get the Boulder one then I can pick up at the following locations (this also depends on how much they collect):

G-Force Powersports
Faster Motosports
Coyote Motorsports
Colorado Powersports Denver
Thunderbird Motorcycles
12 Volt Tavern
Creative Looks Salon

Jeff if you can get CPS/Boulder that would help. I could meet you at TFOG mid-morning-ish if that works? I need to stop off at my office, Fay, and Grand Prix on the way there. I'm guessing about 10:30 or so.

Sheila not sure what your free time is like, but if you could get the stuff on there except Faster that would also be great. We could meet up with you either same time as Jeff, or after.

Does that work for both of you?

Disregard the PM. I will be at B-town CPS @ 9AM tomorrow morning when they open. I will then make my way to TFOG with a target landing of 10:30AM. It is supposed to snow so that might alter the schedule some.

[rforsythe]

Yeah, trying to bust this all out as early as possible to beat as much of the snow as I can.

[InlineSIX24]

You know you want to make the 2wd people feel bad w/ your Ford.

[rforsythe]

True, but I don't want them running into it either.

Sheeeeeila answer your phone!!

[peteremsley]

I took a small box of stuff that I'd collected in the office over to Fay Myers this am. Unfortunately I missed the collection

Is there anywhere south that I can still drop this stuff off?

[Sortarican]

I thought today was the last day for dropoff?
Was planning to go by GP after work.

[mtnairlover]

Check out post #143 for drop off locations and post #161 for the day the pick-ups will happen.

Not sure where Ralph would be now, but I believe the Food Bank of the Rockies is way out in BFE Aurora, which is where he will be heading. If you have nick_ninja's number, or Ralph's give 'em a call.

[Sortarican]

Yeah, #161 says 12/23, though not what time etc.

Ralph, have you picked up at Grand Prix yet?

[Dizzy D]

Probably, he left at 9:00 and that was one of the first stops.

[Nick_Ninja]

I dropped off CPS at TFOG @ 10:30.

[Sticky 296]

Yeah Ralph all ready did the pick up at Grand Prix Motorsports!

[64BonnieLass]

Yeah Ralph all ready did the pick up at Grand Prix Motorsports!

Did you get my stuff on the front porch this morning?

I was gonna throw in a couple ceiling cats for you, but we know what happens to those poor lil guys.

[rforsythe]

Friggen AWESOME job guys! We kinda surprised the folks at Food Bank when we pulled up and told them we had some food to drop off.
Rybo: "Hey we have some food to give you."
Them: "Oh, yeah ok, just pull over to that door and unload it..."
Rybo: "Well we have about 6,000lbs of it, would you mind bringing some pallets and a lift?"
Them:

They brought a small army out and had us unloaded in about 15 minutes, pictures will be posted up in a bit. We collected so much it maxed out the weight of what I could carry in my smaller trailer, and we ended up having to pile it in the bed of the truck. We actually ended up airing up the tires on the trailer at Grand Prix after the weight started making them look a little flatter than I liked.

Kick ass job guys! 6,000lbs of food in a week is awesome!

Yeah we got it great job! I wish there was a few ceiling cats in the bag, I would have taken better care of them this time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[rybo]

It was a fantastic day. Here are some pics:

A couple at Grand Prix, where a HUGE amount of food was collected.

Then a couple more at the food bank with some of the staff there. What a great bunch of people! The pallets in the front are a portion of the food that you all collected and donated, some of it was already warehoused by the time I got to take the picture!


I wish all of you a very happy holiday season. Good job!
