Please come out and support our efforts to Save Camp X through a fundraising car wash.

As you may be aware, the artifacts collected to commemorate the men and women of Camp X are being sold to the highest bidder by a family member claiming the collection. PLEASE HELP KEEP OUR LEGACY AT HOME!

We will be donating 100% of our proceeds from the car wash, and any donations that we receive directly to the Royal Canadian Legion Branch 637 in an effort to raise money to Help Save Camp X.

Special thanks to Speedy Muffler, Brake & Wheel for donating their facility and utilities to enable us to help achieve our goal of Saving Camp X.

Tickets $20 each and only 2500 will be sold

I just love reading Seth Godin’s short blog posts. Here’s one that arrived in my email box today…

If I give you something, or way more than you paid for, an imbalance is created. That imbalance must be resolved.

As you can tell by this exerpt, this blog post is about giving, which has always been a big priority in my life thanks to my parents who are perpetual givers of their time and money and taught me those values.  I can’t tell you how many times I heard “Many hands make light work” or “What goes around, comes around” growing up!

Then as I got older, Zig Ziglar’s quote…

You Can Only Get What You Want, If You Help Enough Other People Get What They Want

really resonated with me and is one of my favourite quotes.

As usual, Seth looks at giving in a totally different way, and as usual it makes total sense.  Check out Seth’s Blog: The hidden power of a gift.  It’s an awesome read.

In addition to tasting the world’s first 100% Organic Healthy Coffee (taste great), and listening to great music, and meeting new people, we are going to show you: “How To Get Paid 7 Ways” for drinking coffee and giving away coffee samples to people you know that already drink coffee!  Every one drinks coffee or knows someone who does. Most people drink 2-3 cups per day. It’s Simple. It’s Easy. It’s Coffee.

If you like coffee, come drink with us. If you don’t drink coffee, come listen to the music. If you like MONEY, and you are looking for some solutions as to how to INCREASE YOUR INCOME, we are experts at it and will show you how it’s done! Come learn why this unique opportunity is being compared to Microsoft, NIKE and Google. You do remember these companies right? What if you had been one of the first to learn about Avon or Mary Kay? Your life would be very different right now. It still can be with what we are going to share with you. Get in on the ground floor. We are only days away!!!
