In the New Orleans area? Donate you HAWAIIAN SHIRT to troops in Iraq!

Real Estate Broker/Owner with Pogo Realty, LLC BROK.0005690708

Scott Rhinehart, Realtor in Mission Viejo, CA and his sister are helping a Sargeant Commander in Iraq that she knows to throw a Luau for his troops in Spetember. Scott's blog on this can be found here.  If you're in the metro New Orleans area, please donate any unwanted large and x-large hawaiian-style shirts to the casue.

I'm spearheading the effort to collect them in our area. So please contact me for more info or to arrange a pickup of your shirt. Of course if you're in the area, you can also deliver them to me at my RE/MAX office, 4141 Veterans Blvd in Metairie.

 Thanks, ya'll!

Troy, I have a few extras in my closet that Kathryn wants me to part with.  They are Mediums, though!  John

 

PS - the old GST gang went heavy into Aloha shirts after GST purchased Hawaii On-Line and started a CLEC on the Islands -- fun times!
