9/8/11 - Let the Lemonade Stands Begin!

I wish I had more time to write, but I am in over my head planning our Grand Stand this year, and just have to get this information out. IF you are unable to attend our Alex's Lemonade Stand Grand Stand this year, there are many other opportunities to attend an Alex's Lemonade Stand, thanks to our several stand hosts! This is something we added this year to our stand and have had so many amazing people step up to the plate. It will do so much to help us reach our goal this year. I want you to know about all the stands around town and out of town that you can also attend. Be sure to notice the dates, several of them are the week before ours.

There are a couple more possibilities, so stay tuned!!

I hope you can make it to one of these stands. If you have a specific one you'd like to go to and need more info (addresses, etc.) post a comment and I'll get you the info.

Now, don't forget you can still donate online if you won't be able to come. www.alexslemonade.org/mypage/71351

And just to throw this out there, we are desperate for something electronic at our raffle (which is going to be AWESOME) so if anyone has any connections to an electronics store or has an IPOD touch sitting unopened in a corner somewhere you'd like to donate, let me know!!

Let's spread some awareness - someday people will know what September is.
