Red Friday-Suppport The Troops- Kitchener/Waterloo- Friday- October 24 2008

[Bruce Monkhouse]

Small but intimate gathering, met  RHFC_piper and chatted with some others. The father of Braun Woodfield was there, along with quite a few other parents. Thanks to the local media, specifically CHYM-FM, who were all around and supplied the PA trailer.

Left some copies of the latest "Ruxted" editorial with the organizing group for thier reading pleasure.

That's a nice update Bruce! +1 to KICX 106! They are also one of my personal favourites to listen to also. Never a week goes by also, that I haven't heard them mention to listeners 'Wear Red on Friday'

That would have been fabulous! Emerson Drive are one of my fave bands. Guess I'll have to listen to the radio station this morning and remember, Bruce forgot about me "sigh"

Glad you had a nice time, it wouldn't have worked for me to be able to go anyways so that's alright ;D
