[quote="iamawino"]I have been thinking about this answer for the last three days.

First I would like to again thank all the people who came out to help set up.  It is a wonder how we pulled this off in one day, I couldn't have done it without you guys so thank you again!  Second, thank you for those who did bring food it is greatly appreciated especially (you know who you are) that brought several cases, and my friends who I know brought a lot you made a difference!

Now to answer the question about donations.  I am [b]great-full[/b] for anything that we received because even a little will make a difference.  Am I happy, NO, I am very disappointed in the donations this year.  We ONLY collected one large storage bin full of food and $49.00 for the food banks (this included the 6 cases that were donated by one person so that took up a third of the bin!).  When I put in months of work preparing and the $ that we personally spent we would hope that an event of this caliber and the 100's of people who attended we should be able to collect 10x the effort.  Not even near it in fact just the $ I spent to make this even happen (not even counting my time) I could have bought much more and given the food banks more than what was collected.

We "hope" that for those who came through and did not get a chance to donate will bring what they can.

Again we are thankful for those who did.[/quote]
