Pohanka Comes To The Rescue For The Brooke Mulford Bonfire


I just received a call from the Pohanka Auto Group. These Folks are just unbelievable! They read about Brooke Mulford and the Bonfire tomorrow night at Doug Marshall's new place on Rt. 13. Pohanka said, Joe, "we'll be bringing a Toyota Sienna and a Honda Odyssey" to drive tomorrow night and shuttle everyone back and forth from the Home Depot Parking Lot.

I called Doug and told him what Pohanka wanted to do and he was speechless. I said, are you feeling the goose bumps Doug? He said, you know, it's funny you mention that Joe because yes, I have goose bumps all over. Great people doing great things for each other, especially those in need. Can you see it now Folks? 2009 is going to be a great year in Wicomico County!

Our very special thanks goes out to the Pohanka Auto Group and ALL of their Staff so willing to give in such tough times. In order to get an idea of how many people will be attending, could you please simply say YES in the comment section of this Post. You can do so anonymously so we can get some kind of idea how well attended this event will be. Thank You.

Here's what we're recommending for parking. If you'll start parking at Home Depot at 6:00 PM, Pohanka will have two shuttle vans taking people back and forth from 6:00 until whenever the event ends.

Additional coverage on this event will be aired on WBOC at 6:00 PM tonight.

I must have missed something. What is happening at the bon fire after we all get there. Will there be vendors available with food? Enertainment? How are we collecting funds?

Hey Joe,
Amazing what everybody will do, I just wanted to let you know that my son and daughter in law, who own Phat Boyz Catering decided to take their HOT DOG cart and give away hot dogs (on a cold nite)in exchange for a donation for Brooke. Lets get out and support this wonderful effort to help the Mulford's

FRIDAY NIGHT

you should let people know. friday may be the coldest day we've had in the last 4 years. a high temp. of 22 with wind chills around o to 5 above and dropping like a rock when the sun goes down. friday night will get to around 1 degree for a low with wind chils of around 6 below. so make sure people are well prepared. you should have emt's and other personel available for frostbite, etc.
this is for a good cause, but don't let someone else find tragidy from the severe cold.

anonymous 3:51,

The cold is completely covered, not to worry. I will put up another Post in a few minutes updating the information and explain just how warm everyone will be.
