Triangle Italians December 6th Durham Rescue Mission Toy Drive

Hello Everyone! I am extremely excited about our December 6th gathering. As the title suggests, we’re doing something a little different for this special month. For our December meet-n-greet, we’ll be collecting toys for the Durham Rescue Mission. Here is our chance to give the gift of generosity to some of those less fortunate. Most of the children at the Durham Rescue Mission will probably not receive a Christmas gift without our help.

As for a Christmas present, the spokesperson at Durham Rescue Mission said the guidelines are pretty open:
• Boys & Girls ages 12 and under
• Please make sure the gift remains unwrapped

The plan for the morning will be as follows:
• We’ll meet @ Camille’s at our regular time of 9:00AM.
• We’ll start lining up cars around 10:00 - 10:15 and leave the parking lot @ 10:30.
• We will drive to the drop-off point; (currently Crosspointe Church) located at Rt55 & Carpenter Fire Station Road. If this changes, I’ll make sure the thread is updated. I’ll also bring maps for our drive.

The Durham Rescue Mission will have a truck at Crosspointe for us to load our gifts. Thank you everyone in advance for helping with this toy drive!

 

All...if we could get a count of who is planning to be there, that would be great. I've got feelers out with friends on the local Porsche sites to get a count as well.

Thanks everyone!

 

No, that is the reason we are not dropping off at the Durham Rescue Mission. We are dropping off at a Church (my Church) in a great location. Now you don't have a reason to not bring the 360!

 

Ok...I will be the one in the RED Ferrari. Just kidding. Truthfully, I will be in a red 308 with the license tag "84 QV". (my 308 below)

And, the objective for this toy drive will be for all of us to drive to the drop-off location (Crosspointe Church) and load the toys on to a truck from the Durham Rescue Mission. Can you imagine the sight of 50-100 exotic and sports cars driving on 540?...it should be pretty awesome! If there are some people who can't make the drive, we'll collect those toys at Brier Creek and find someone who has an empty passenger seat.

And again, I sincerely appreciate everyone who will be participating. This is such a fantastic cause!

P.S...I didn't see Marc's "RED Ferrari" comment until after I posted. I wasn't trying to be a smart azz.

Kevin, we would be thrilled to have you or anyone drive with us over to the church. At the end of the day, we are all car guys and that is why we get together to share our hobby and passion with others. Truth be told, I have a BMW 325is that I'll been looking to sell in the spring and trade-up to a S2000...just need to make sure I can get a set of golf clubs in the trunk!

 

Yep!...that's the location. I was planning on bringing maps to hand out to everyone, but, if you want to bring some that will definitely help!

And...I will definitely take you up on your offer to help with the S2000!

 

Good to hear! And...the 308 is running again. I'm detailing her this weekend.

 

Matt...if it's dry, I'll go topless as well!

 

Daniel...we would love to have you! I've put threads out to LotusTalk, NSXPrime, S2000, and the local Porsche groups. Should be a great turnout. We'll be meeting at Leith Pre-Owned around 8:15AM and leave there 8:30ish. I want to get to Brier Creek a little early.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

 

It sure is...your coffee and breakfast is on me!

 

Matt...we (the Ferrari group) should probably be @ Brier Creek a little earlier than normal since we are sponsoring this event. So, I say that we meet at Leith PreOwned @ 8:15, leave Leith @ 8:30. Sound like a plan?

 

Think of the temperatures as "invigorating"!
