Alright guys.......turkey day is out of the way, so now it's time for Christmas. I just made a donation to the saltycajun Christmas fund to help out 2 families in need of a hand up to help make their Christmas a joyous occasion.
I challenge everyone to dig into your pockets and send what you can to help get this thing going. If we could just get everyone to send in a $20 bill, we can turn this into another successful saltycajun mission. Come on ladies and gentlemen......dig in your pockets.. And Merry Christmas!!! |

Alright fellas, it's been a VERY busy day here at the shop today!...Just ask Johnny! (Sorry I didn't have more time to bs today buddy!) Anyway, as of right now, I've recieved 3 more donations worth a combined total of $105! Thank you so much for the generosity fellas!
As best I can tell, unofficially, we have somewhere in the neighborhood of $1500 promised or received already. With that being said, we are well on our way but, have a ways to go yet! Figure that we have 8 kids, all 12 and under as well as 4 adults. I appreciate all of the generosity and support! Keep it going fellas! You're doing a great deed here that will surely brighten some kid's days and release some stress from some deserving parents! |

Ok guys, I was finally able to get the sizes for the "West Side" family. 5 boys
3 month old wears 3-6 and 6-9 month clothes. 20 month old, wears 2T clothes, likes to play with trains. 4 yr old, wears 4T clothes, likes to play football, basket ball, etc. Sports. 6 yr old, Size 6 clothes, likes to play games, and loves Spiderman. 3 yr old, wears 3T and loves toy trucks. Guys we are really ready to kick this thing into high gear, we have a little over 2 weeks to go before we would like to start the shopping. We will take donations up to the last possible minute but it would make it easier on the volunteers if we could start the shopping around Dec. 15th. PS thanks Southern151 for the gumbo today. |

Ok, to date, we have only raised $745. I have another $1000 promised but, it won't be here until Monday. Of this, only $645 has come from us, the people of the SC. I have yet to make my donation which will likely be another couple hundred bucks. At $645 and 4285 members, that's a whopping $.15 per member donated so far! Surely, this isn't the best that we can do.
We're running short on time, guys. Please, help out if ya can! |

I been unemployed for over a year. Only gone fishing 3 times in 2011. Didn't buy a hunting license cause i knew the money wasn't there to go hunting. But i'm kicking in $100+ to this cause . Why? because there's those out there worse off than i am.
EVERYONE can pass on one case of beer or one bottle of booze or give up just one fishing trip and kick in $20. If everyone of us just pitched in $20 these folks on the west and east side will probably have the best Christmas of their lives. C'mon folks it's $20 ,Bring lunch from home for a couple of days and that will cover it. Off my Soapbox now. On edit, Just wanted to thank the guy who took me fishing for real cheap. Thank's bud.
