I am giving everyone an update on the fund raiser for the Heart of Tennessee Red Cross Chapter. The owners of the bowling center have decided to lower the price of bowling. It is now going to be $3.00 for children and $4.00 per adult per game plus shoe rental with half of all proceeds going to the Red Cross. This is going to be a great value that is also helping those in need out. I have confirmed that the firetruck, firehouse from the Town of Smyrna will be coming along with the Dare officers, K-9 unit, D.J., Karaoke, inflatable, dunking booth, airbrush tattoo artist, O'Charleys will be bringing their mobile kitchen, games, P.A.W.S, and much much much more. What I am needing now from the people of our great town is volunteers and items donated for the silent auction. Also O'Charleys is only going to donate one case of small burgers and buns so I would like for those with a group or church to come forward and donate food items to sell to raise money. If you or your group can help please email me at bearroller9640@yahoo.com.
