Mapleview Ice Cream stores donating Labor Day sales for Katrina victims

Got this is an email for precinct chairs. Thought I would pass it to all in the area.

I personally know the Maple View family and they are wonderful folks who really do put community first. I altered the original format somewhat to make the message stand out more. If the OP is reading this, sorry. It's the editor in me coming out. :-)

Please pass this along...

Subject: Important: Aid for the victims of Hurricane Katrina offered by Mapleview Ice Cream Store

Dear Friends, My neighbor, owner of the Mapleview Ice Cream stores called me tonight and asked me to e-mail a few friends to get the word out that both ice cream stores will be open on *Monday, September 5, Labor Day and that ALL the proceeds will be donated to the relief effort for the victims of Hurricane Katrina.*

Both the original country store on Dairyland road near Mapleview farms (open 12-9pm) and the new store on Weaver street (open 12-10pm) across from Carr Mill Mall will be participating.

All the workers will be volunteers and ALL the money taken in for ice cream, milk, etc. will be given to the relief effort. Please notice it is ALL the proceeds rather than all the profits. "Word of mouth" will be the only advertising method so please let your friends and co-workers know about this delicious opportunity to help. Thanks so much!!

Sincerely, XXXXX

P.S You may remember that the Mapleview folks did this on New Year's Day for the Tsunami Relief effort and sent a check for more that $3000. This was before the Carrboro store opened!!
