Something Special
Susie Van Dusen actually brought a new talent to the project. She made a flyer for us. They are so cool. She mailed several copies to me. I'm going to get them posted in the neighborhood stores as soon as possible. My intentions are to save one to make more copies for posting in Tulsa. Super Great Job, Susie. See it in the Photo Gallery.
Printing and Poems
Susie also wrote this cute little poem to go with the hats:
Along with this hat-
Comes a little prayer...
Just to let you know
That someone cares.
She sent several tags with the poem printed on them. But I needed a LOT more. Enough for over 200 hats were printed and donated by my good friends at:
International Office Machines - 1661 S. Yale Ave. - Tulsa, OK Thank you ;-)
And Thank You, Jarrell Wade and Cory Young, for getting us in the Tulsa World newspaper.
