Update from card show on Sunday is that we had 20 tables set up and a lot of foot traffic. It was a good day for everyone. Look forward to another good showing on Oct 23rd. Greg is planning on serving breakfast sandwiches in the morning and hamburgers and hot dogs in the afternoon. In the meantime we will be at Patrick's Pub on Tuesday Oct 4th. Join us for dinner, mention to your server you are there for Rich and 50% of your food tab will be donated to RVYSEF. Plus have a chance for some great raffle items. Including gift certificates for Heaven Scent Flowers, Movie Passes, Dinner certificates and Lift tickets to Pat's Peak and Gunstock. Tickets are only dollar each or 8 for $5.00.
We are starting to plan or think about a pancake breakfast. If any one has ideas or would like to help make plans for our next event, contact us at rvysef@gmail.com.
We have a couple request that just came in one for Ski's and another for hockey equipment. The request are being viewed by the board and will do every effort to assist these families.
Wanted to give one more thank you to all our supporters. Also Thanks again to Walmart for the $500.00 grant.

Card Show and Equipment Swap this Sunday
Looking like all of the work I have put into the card show for this weekend just may pay off. Starting to get all the dealers to commit to tables. Even have a few new ones. The Equipment Swap is the first time we have tried this. Hoping that people show up to trade or donate unwanted sports equipment. Started the equipment swap to generate interest in RVYSEf along with having people come to card shows. Everyone that attends the card show will receive a free grab bag of trading cards. A lot of things happening. The RVYSEF Board will have a meeting after the shows, approx 2:30pm at Leavitt Park. If there is anyone that would like to attend and help with this great foundation, just stop by.
