I was at an event for this organization with Cary last night and it was magnificent.

If you have anything similar, in your local area. It's the type of thing where you can make a difference and actually see the results. It's local and it's human and I feel great today. I just want to go back and hang out with all of them some more.

Yeah, it was the first time I've done something like this.
Now go ahead and mock me.

Nope. Big ups to you for getting involved with the local community. Something I certainly haven't done enough of since moving to the UK (church stuff '03-05 aside).

I'm not so involved right now.
Best that I can do is give some money, but I hope that I can do some more. And Cary asked me if he could go to camp there. Maybe that'll be a chance to do something more.

im looking for something where i can be in a fuzzy costume and helping kids

Well done, Todd. You're a good egg, Noonan.

Great stuff, Todd.
When my cousin lived in Chicago in the early '90s she was heavily involved in Off The Street Club and just raved about how awesome an experience it was.
Whatever you and your kids are able to do, I hope you find it as fulfilling.
Best of luck.
