Holiday Horsepower Drive

Via Buddy Ray Jones

We ARE having the hospital visit this year. We are a little behind on getting things posted this year due to issues with our house. (We are having to move due to flood damage in our house.) But we can't let the kids down. We need everyone’s help this year.

We need items for the gift drive. All donations (monetary and otherwise) can be sent to Joe’s Karting. The hospital visit is Saturday, December 17th and we only have a few items so far.

Recommended donations are: Racing shirts Decals Toys (new) Crayons Hand held games Cash Hero cards Hot wheels Coloring books Gift cards Stuffed animals Gift Bags (for infant gifts) Boxes (for the other gifts)

We have 100 children to help. It breaks down to about 60 kids from ages toddler to teenager and about 40 babies (many in NICU). For the babies we usually have a receiving blanket, a beanie baby animal, a stocking, and a set of booties per baby.

We try to give each child the same things in their boxes. If we get 5 t-shirts from 12 different racing teams, that would be 60 shirts for the older kids. Anything given is a big help and much appreciated by the kids.

Email or call Buddy Ray ASAP if you can help out.

Or if you would like to donate to the cause, please send to the Holiday Horsepower Drive at: Joe’s Karting c/o Buddy Ray Jones/Holiday Horsepower Drive 2121 S 32nd St Council Bluffs, IA 51501
