Default Houston - NMSS - Volunteers

I got this email yesterday -

***********

Hi Tom!

How are you? I was also at the Memorial Park Packet Pick Up last year and I definitely remember you in great spirits signing hundreds of bandanas. You were a star that day J.

I received your Champions against MS form and you mentioned that you knew a “boatload” of people who were interested in getting involved in this program. Wonderful! I was considering having a sort of bandana signing fiesta sometime between now and the middle of March. Would you be interested in this? I was thinking that we could have it here at the office? What are your thoughts?

I hope all is well and I am looking forward to hearing from you soon,

Klaire

If you're in Houston, wanna sign bandanas that people wear while riding the MS150 bike ride from Houston to Austin? Let me know! We'll have a signing party at, well, address above. It's near Reliant Stadium. You're the boatload of people I'm referring to.

Tom

If I was closer I would do it!

I'm going to volunteer at the NMSS booth at Frankenmuth on May 3rd, are you interested Tom??

Or anyone in Michigan interested?

Susan - I'll let ya know.

Hey folks, if anyone can get in touch with DHolland, Gigi69, MommaD, TxBatMan, or any other folks in Houston, let me know. I tried to post this same message at MSW yesterday and it didn't pass muster. I used pm's there to store contact info (stupid). One would think if the site is the "official" NMSS message board, asking for volunteers for a NMSS event would be all right...

Tom,

I'm here and I can get ahold of MommaD but don't know how to reach GiGi,

Let me know when it is, but I've got to warn you that I work for a CPA firm and cannot take off work to do this because we are crazy from Feb 15 through April.

Let me know.

Just want to add that I think that's totally cool, Tom.

I live in IL, but if I was there, I'd ask for your autograph!
