FC Children's Hospital Toy Run
 
Does anyone plan on making it to the Louisiana Ferrari club's toy run? They say that all makes are welcome and the end goal is to make sure every kid in the hospital gets a christmas gift.

Here are the details

It’s that time of year again, and if you really want a true blessing please show up and or contribute to this event.

Meeting: Toys R US 3609 Veterans Memorial Blvd., Metairie - (504) 455-9513
Time: 11:30 AM Saturday December 19th Rain or Shine
We’ll have an hour and a half to shop. Or if you have already purchased your toys bring them with you and meet us when we leave at 1:00PM. We will have a pickup truck in case we cannot fit all the toys in the cars. But please bring your cars, this is what the kids want to see. I will have a follow-up e-mail about what kinds of toy to can give to the kids.

I may be interested, I am on call that day but if I can work it in, I will.

This sounds great! I'm a sucker for this type of events. Are you planning to go NOLA911?

I'll go as long as there are other non-Ferrari owners out there.

NOLA911 Dec 13, 2009 08:02 PM

Yeah, I think it would be a nice thing to do and will be in attendance.

Bushburner Dec 15, 2009 07:24 PM

I would have love to make it, but I have to work.

Wankel Dec 16, 2009 04:43 PM

Hey NOLA: When/where do you plan to start? I'm 99% sure I will be able to make it. Wanna have a meeting of the non-F-cars?

NOLA911 Dec 16, 2009 09:21 PM

I'd like to make it to toys r us. I wouldnt mind getting together before that though. There is a cc's coffee shop a block from the toy store. I'd be glad to get together up there beforehand if you want to, or anywhere else for that matter.

Bushburner Dec 21, 2009 07:37 AM

How did the event go? Were the children happy? Pics?

NOLA911 Dec 21, 2009 08:42 PM

Man, it was a blast. The children were thrilled to see the cars but the carts full of toys didn't hurt either! We were able to give every patient a gift with plenty left over. Overall a great success. Cars in attendance: 5 ferrari, m6, m3, lotus, 997s, 944, RS4, Ford GT, GTR, and the infamous Smart
Here is a pic from the net of some of the cars. Obviously no gift giving pictures were taken for privacy of the patients.

Bushburner Dec 21, 2009 10:25 PM

I don't see pics :o I wish I could have made it, but I work every Saturday. Sounded like it was a successful event.
