Hoopie World Night is Wednesday, October 7th

I would like to invite everyone to the online Hoopie World night at 8pm eastern on Wednesday, October 7th.  “Hoopie Night” was the idea of one of our regular visitors to have an online meet-n-greet and just hang out for a while.  We are also going to try to break the record for most users online at one time on our forums.

The main meeting place will be in the forums at http://hoopieworld.com/boards.  You don’t have to register to come, however you do need to be registered and login to use the shoutbox/chat feature.  The plan is just to have some running threads and chat about current events, the site, or whatever we feel like it at the moment.  I know the Pens are on, so I’ll be sure to have that on in the background.

I hope to see everyone online there, also there may be some giveaways (Hoopie Tshirts) so spread the word.

Blood Drive For Dorothy Vay

I have a special request for everyone to support this blood drive.  Dorothy Vay is our Ambulance / Medical Coordinator at Lincoln, a medic, and lifelong asset to the community.  She has always thought of others before herself, and now is time to help her. Please see the flyer for more details (click on it for a larger size).

The event is on September 11th, 2009 from 1:00pm to 7:00pm.

Your participation is greatly appreciated.
