[Bricklin] New Zealand Earthquake

[George]

?We can not thank all that have sent in donations for helping the people of
Christchurch enough. We will be sending our contributions to them shortly.
John and Loretta suggested we donate to St. John's Ambulance . They have been
tirelessly helping with rescue and now recovery. Many are volunteering their
time and efforts. We feel that this is the best way to help directly and
bypass the larger organizations (who, by the way, are doing a tremendous job
also). Again, thanks to all who contributed and any and all are still welcome
to participate either by sending donations through PayPal or checks to
Stuart.
Our thoughts and prayers go out to the people of Christchurch who have seen at
least one third of their city destroyed by this latest round of quakes, not to
mention the hundreds that are dead or still missing.
Loretta has sent me some pictures of the devastation and if any one would like
to view them, drop me a line and I'll share them with you.
George.

  As you have probably heard by now there was a bad earthquake in New
  Zealand last week.

  One of our club members (John & Loretta Stead) live in Christchurch
  were the quake was centered.  She send us an email about it right
  after it happened, on
  Wed and Thur. morning.  They will be in the April issue of The Brickline
along
  with 2 pictures.

  The Steads are OK but shaken, and helping the others in their neighborhood
that
  have suffered more losses.

  George Malaska (the club registrar) suggested that club members might want
to
  chip in and send a donation to Christchurch in John & Loretta's name.

  Stuart Zukrow (Bricklinalia) has a pay pal account set up so we can make a
  contribution to a pot via pay pal.  In a few days (not sure when -
  but we want to
  do this quickly) we'll take the money out of the pot and send it on
  to Christchurch.

  If you'd like to donate, please send your donations via pay
  pal  sjzukrow at msn.com<mailto:sjzukrow at msn.com>
