River Tin Rodders Rev It Up For Charities

Fancy chassis from all over the country participated in the 32nd Annual Charity Riverfront Rod Run, held May 29-31 in downtown Paducah. This charity rod run recognizes the "Best of Show" and "Best Use of Color." Proceeds benefit Easter Seals West Kentucky, Child Watch Children's Advocacy Center, St. Nicholas Clinic and the Downtown Kiwanis Club. Members of the River Tin Street Rod recently presented $9,500 to the organizations!

Roof Top 'Tinis!

Thanks iList Paducah for a free ticket to Harrah's Rooftop Martini Party on Friday! I submitted Market House Theatre’s My Way: After Hours Pomegranate Martini recipe for Luck Be A Lady. Ingredients from Roof Brothers included 2 oz citrus vodka and 4 oz pomegranate juice. It was super popular. The Roof Top event benefits the Guardian Family Services Women's Shelter in Metropolis.

And attention high rollers and dice throwers: Word around the CDC is that Harrah's will be hosting an event in September to benefit the 53rd Annual Telethon of Stars. Details soon!

Are You Reading That?

Individuals at our Adult Services Center will spend more time reading, thanks to a large donation of books by a local retired businesswoman. This morning, 15 boxes of mysteries, non-fictions, encyclopedias and classics dollied in much to the delight of our staff. Thank you so much to Barbara Shelton for thinking of us when making this donation.

Cleaning the house or moving? We could always use kitchen cookware for our cooking classes, toys and books for our Child Development Center, t-shirts, weighing scales for our Adult Day program, paint supplies for our art program, cds and dvds for our social skills programs. We also take used ink cartridges, old cell phones and paper (we recycle!). Anything and everything is deeply appreciated.
