May I have your attention please!!
Word. It is going to be very hot in Arizona (average temp this time of year 103 degrees). So please dress cool and wear red, white and blue. The most important thing is to be comfortable in the heat. Dress code is optional. You have to dress, but the colors I mean. Por favor don’t make him have to get after you with his sharpie. Now. Time is growing very short and we have a few updates to post and discuss. I hit publish last night and then took it down to work out some fine details. Sorry for the confusion. Oh, BTW…
*Update for Gifting*
For the Gilbert, AZ event on September 17, SweetonDA will be accepting letters, cards, donation envelopes and gifts for David. Please keep packages small and no larger than a shirt box or large packing envelope. To get her mailing address, email her at
*Wristband Update*
Over a hundred wristbands have been mailed out by Djafan. She has extended the time for ordering to the 6th which gives the mail 8 days to get back to you. Any left will be sold at the gate by the venue for fans who want to donate and get reserved seating but didn’t hear about it online. Some wristbands have been generously purchased for gifting. Thank you to you know who you all are! See me about that. I will be wearing a red hat. Or possibly a straw colored hat with red, white and blue scarves tied on. I can’t decide. 😕
*Update – We are getting Bracelets!*
SandyBeaches has generously purchased uber-awesome silicone bracelets for gifting to everyone going to the event! Anyone who has a wristband will receive a bracelet, shown below. Thank you SandyBeaches! Muwaah! A truer statement could not be worn. She has ordered a nice variety of sizes too, not just one size fits all. 🙂 I will let her post more on this in comments.
*Flower Power*
Two bouquets for sure will be purchased…one from the fans who could not attend and one from those attending. If you are not attending and would like to contribute to flowers, send a small donation to SweetonDA at her email above. Indicate that you would like the donation to go for flowers. For the other bouquet, those attending will be shaken down on the spot. 😉 We are only talking 1 to 5 dollars. Leftover money will go toward possibly having an Edible Bouquet (which would melt in the heat) delivered to his hotel room. <<<<This last would be delivered via event coordinators for obvious reasons. Here are some links for florists in the town of Gilbert if you are interested in making your own purchase. Bouquets should be brought to venue and hopefully we can get them to him after his set, along with the cards, small gifts, etc; sent to SweetonDA or brought by those attending. One large bag should do it. SandyBeaches is bringing a Canadian Hockey bag. I have no idea what that is but it sounds really cool…and manly. A little aside inside note..Djafan said Barbara Stowell (event coordinator extraordinaire and super nice lady) was surprised that we actually wanted to GIVE him stuff! BAHAHHAAAAAA!!! smh.
