Re: Teams Affected by Hurricane Katrina

I got thinking about this whole devestation, and reading this post and Andy's statement really hit home:

Think. Pray. This is a dire time.

And for the life of me, I couldnt figure out how we could help right off the bat... but on my 45 minute commute this morning, I think I came up with something We could sell little ribbons (Im thinking white ribbons in the shape like the breast cancer ribbons) with pins and little logos on them, and donate all the money to the red cross. We could also make buttons... I have attached a jpg of the image, and I will see if I can upload the publisher file. You can of course make your own... but I am going to try to push this idea to all of the rochester teams... so that collectively we can make a difference!

I'll upload the ribbon logos when I have them. The idea would be to put a thin laminate over them.
