THIS THREAD IS FOR THE NERD HERDERS ( Formerly called SPOTTERS) TO SIGN UP ONLY - COSTUMERS PLEASE CLICK HERE TO ROSTER UP:
http://www.cloudcitygarrison.com/forum/index.php?topic=7405.0
The Salvation Army is asking us to once again step forward and help out on Saturday, Dec 15th at the Macy's in downtown Portland with their traditional red kettle fund raising.
What: Salvation Army Bell Ringing
Where: Downtown at Macy's at 621 SW 5th Ave. We'll have the 2 doors between 5th & 6th Ave on Morrison.
When: Saturday, December 15th from 11:00am* to 2:00pm**
(*if it's extremely cold, we'll plan to end early -- around 1pm)
Where to Meet:
Meet at the ODS Parking Garage on 3rd Street (5th Floor)
It is between Alder and Morrison, so as you're driving south on 3rd (the only way you can go), the garage will be on your left almost directly after you pass the Alder intersection. It's a steep ramp up just past the corner. Once you're in, wind yourself up to the 5th floor, and park as close as you can to the Street Elevators (not the Office Elevators). There is a sign denoting both. This is a quiet, warm sort of garage usually, so it's good for costume changing. Plus there are no windows or outsiders floating around in there.
We will move to our corners en masse once everybody is ready. I am working with Macy's and the 9's hotel for a possible location for our people to warm up and take a short break as necessary, will have more on that later.
But wait! there's more!: There will be refreshments for when you arrive (Hot Cider, Hot Chocolate, and Coffee) and donuts. I believe it's $4 to park on the weekends but don't hold me to it, its been a year since I've been there.
Spotters? YOU BET! We need spotters to come out and help us given that we're downtown, on the street and mingling with the holiday crowd. If you haven't spotted before, here's a great one to come to for meet and greet!
Post here if you can help out, the emperor will be pleased :)
