Radio Flyer Pathfinder Wagon
 
Also found at Toys R Us: Radio Flyer Pathfinder Wagon | ToysRUs

Amazon, Sears & e-bay has the item but price is higher.
We need one at the Anniversary Party. Jeff, will you take charge? I'll donate.

Hey, Bruce Nelson had an idea. How about putting "ARIZONA COBRAS" Decals on the wagons? Like on some windshields. Anyone have extras?

AZ Bob

Pmiller176 11-16-2014 07:54 AM

count us in too. Will bring a wagon or two to the xmax gathering.

Latest Update
 
Just talked to Denise Whittstock at PCH. We are confirmed for Saturday morning, December 13th between 7 and 9am. (Is this getting earlier?). Channel 12 has also confirmed they will be broadcasting their daily weather reports from this location all morning (5am to 10am.). Denise will give me an exact time and place to be as we get closer. I related when we asked for attendance for a dieing woman’s last request for her husband and we got about 40 cobras show up. I also prepared her for what would happen if it rains LOL. Bruce Nelson says whatever toys will not fit in the cars will be carried by a trailing truck.
Denise thought the Santa Hats for the drivers/riders was a nice touch for the season. Now we are working out drop off location or circular drive out front? I will keep you advised.

Wagon Donations
 
Jeff...has anyone approached Toys R Us, etal, for a contribution of several wagons for the cause? I used to get donations for the youth at ADJCC during holiday times, usually pizzas, chicken, etc. I would go to Wal Mart also. These facilities usually have a budget for these things.

My son and I will bring a wagon and assorted infant gifts on the 13th. I am not sure if I will make the party on the 6th.

Have to tell you...I'm very much looking frwd to my first cruise with fellow AZ Cobra comrades, and what an admirable event to shake hands. Looking forward to meeting all of you and contributing to the Toy Drive!

Danr55 11-21-2014 04:29 AM

" Looking forward to meeting all of you..." Give it a while. That will change. You'll be ashamed to tell people you know some of us.. Other's will bring your heart joy.. You figure out which is which... Welcome.

Danr55 11-21-2014 05:45 AM

Hey, while I'm being verbose, who is collecting $$ for wagons?

Bob Broberg SPF667 460BB 11-21-2014 06:48 AM

Us westside guys contributed to Jeff who is buying and assembling one. Get together with your buddies and do the same. Otherwise collection won't be until the Anniversary party and wagons may be gone at the good price from WalMart or Toys R US.
We all intend to bring the normal bag of toys to the party.

Got an offer from Charlie Sullens at Brown's Classic Auto to contribute wagons to our wagon collection. Don't know how many yet, but any would be welcome. I told him there was no such thing as too many wagons. Thank You to Charlie and the Brown's people.

AZ Bob

Danr55 11-21-2014 03:29 PM

Thanks to Browns Classic Auto.. Great folks.. Maybe it would be appropriate to invite them to bring a custom pickup when we deliver the toys to the PCH?

Bob Broberg SPF667 460BB 11-21-2014 03:49 PM

Charlie says he reads all of our posts and we will see him at the Anniversary Party perhaps not in a cobra but he is welcome at any event.

AZ Bob

Pmiller176 11-22-2014 07:52 AM

Got the last 2 wagons in ahwatukee TRU yesterday, along with other toys. Just have to talk Jen into putting them together.

Fast289 11-22-2014 02:23 PM

Hey, how are we delivering the wagons/toys. I barely have enough room for a passenger carrying two bottles of wine, let alone a wagon.

PCH Letterhead
 
Here is a letterhead you can copy and use to present to store managers when asking for donations for our cause. Jeff suggested this for use with WalMart. The manager at his local store said they would donate a $40 gift card that could be used for anything we'd like to purchase for donation to PCH.

Denise also repeated that there is no such thing as too many wagons.

AZ Bob forget the "Shelby"

I agree, I bought out all the wagons at toys r us on Bell and these things are pretty good sized..don't think they are Cobra friendly! We can use my shop truck and trailer to deliver everything if needed, let me know.

Fast289 11-25-2014 09:53 AM

Charlie, can I drop it off at your place before the 13th? Or does anybody else have a plan to get wagons/toys to PCH?

Dave from Chandler

Bob Broberg SPF667 460BB 11-25-2014 09:54 AM

Thanks Charlie we may just take you up on your offer. Then Bruce can drive his cobra. I'll see him tonight and get our ducks in a row.

Sure, that would be fine. My shop is less than a block from the anniversary party location so people can drop them off then as well if that works.
