Save the Date for Sophie Kate

Huge news people, get ready to mark your calendars....our Trussville Chick-Fil-A is doing a fundraiser for Sophie Kate at their store all day long on Monday April 13.  What does all this mean?  Glad you asked, it means that from 6:30am until 9:00pm on Monday April 13 you are to be at the Chick-Fil-A in Trussville, AL eating.  No really, it's that simple eat at the Trussville Chick-Fil-A on Monday April 13 and tell your cashier that you want your receipt saved for Sophie, this part is particularly important.  You MUST tell the cashier "save my receipt for Sophie" and our little Sophie will get 15% of all the receipts saved from that day.  This money will go 100% toward paying Sophie Kate's medical bills, outpatient therapy costs that our insurance doesn't cover (they only pay for 30 visits per year and we go through that in about 4 months), medical equipment, special needs communication devices and therapeutic toys.

We are going to need as much help as possible to get the word out to the community about this special day.  There are so many ways to help out, we are going to need flyers handed out anywhere and everywhere.  If you have a business that we could put a flyer up in or have them at your business to hand out to people, please let me know.  I have lots of baseball connections and one softball connection for help with canvasing those parks, but if anyone has any soccer connections and would hand out flyers there then please let me know, we need someone over there.  If you can let people know at your church via an announcement or posting flyers that would be great b/c our day just happens to be the Monday after Easter Sunday.  If any of you have any creative ideas about spreading the word please let me know, we are in the brainstorming stage right now and would welcome any thoughts or ideas.

Also, the actual day of the fundraiser we are going to need volunteers to be at the donation table that Chick-Fil-A will be setting up for us right outside the restaurant.  We need as many people involved as possible so let me, Theresa Suhr or Traci Collins know if you would be willing to help out in some way.

By the way, it's only February you know so there is really no excuse for you out of towners not to be here, hee hee.  We are Super excited about this, so come on troops I need y'all to mobilize in a big way.
