Christmas Train for Terminally Ill Children

Unread post by DelayInBlock »

I am proud to say that the American Red Cross featured some of my video from the train ride last year. I encourage everyone to check out and support this amazing non-profit.



Barb Dabler and Tim Crossin are the Community Impact Heroes. These two fairy godparents have shown more than 500 terminally-ill children and their families that miracles are possible through their Operation North Pole charity, which includes a fantasy trip on a holiday-themed train ride, dancing and singing with Santa and Mrs. Claus, gifts and games, and 4,000 pounds of candy inside a winter wonderland ballroom in Rosemont.

I agree with Michael, DIB. I like how you are taking your hobby and turning into something you can give back to others.

BTW - don't go to Royal Oak with your drone. It's now illegal for drones except official police activities.
PatC created a monster, 'cause nobody wants to see Don Simon no more they want AARR I'm chopped liver, well if you want AARR this is what I'll give ya, bad humor mixed with irrelevant info that'll make you roll your eyes quicker than a ~Z~ banhammer...

Its Ferndale that proposed it, but city officials said they backed off their plan to vote on drones tonight.

Thanks for correcting me, GTW, about it being Ferndale.

Maybe we should hook up the Wally cars and run a special North Pole Express for other deserving children and do likewise some time. Just a thought. Good work DIB.

That's a great idea and could be a great way to promote both WALLY and the kids.

Here's a thought for power. Having shopped with kids at Christmas and seeing the thrill on their faces I would be willing to help. Been a fireman for 32 years next month.
