See You in Utica...?

Our 2008 Charity Fundraiser is the Susan G. Komen for the Cure Breast Cancer Three-Day.

My wife Shalla Schmidt is currently in training for the weekend event
which centers on a sixty-mile walk to raise donations to advance
research of Breast Cancer and Breast Cancer Treatment. She is
currently very comfortable at 9-mile training walks and will be
moving up to 10 miles in training this coming week, and is 75% of the
way to her donation commitment to qualify.
On August 16, MichiganFandom will hold a get-together to hopefully
celebrate Shalla's qualifying for the Three-Day. Donations made at
the meetup at DAVE AND BUSTER'S in Utica Michigan (location 144) will pretty likely lock in her qualifying donation minimum of $2200 to
participate in the Walk. BE A PART OF THIS. Consider it a challenge
to the Stilyagi membership, MichiganFandom, MOWFO, the Dorsai, and every other group we know of who gather frequently as a fannish
community. Come to D&B at Hall Road and M-53 and we might make it worth your while.

DAVE AND BUSTER 45511 Park Avenue Utica , MI 48315 586-930-1515 - we have NO group reservation. Mob rules.

Dave and Busters offers excellent evening hospitality for all ages,
including dinner, drinks and a huge arcade. A fun evening can be had
for under $25 and if you donate by check when you come out on the
16th, you can be one of THREE who will eat for free.
That's right. A donation of $10 or more gets you a raffle ticket and
three winning individuals will get a 16 dollar value Eat-n-Play combo
deal (select entree and a $10 Game Card) on me. The Saturday hours of the meal deal are til 5pm Saturday and our makeup day is Sunday
August 17 for this meetup.

DAVE AND BUSTER

All you need to do is show up. Grab a drink, find me and get a name
badge. We won't have a group space set aside because we're not asking for RSVPs. Instead see me and then go have fun. We'll gather for the drawing at 4pm in the Midway.

The 3-Day website can also take donations - if you can't come out and see us on August 16 swing on down to the site and help Shalla on her
way to the event. Their link is here.

If YOUR employer offers matching 501c3 qualifying donations for your
personal contributions to the Fund, they can be solicited here.
...but we'd much rather see you in Utica too...!
