<p>Thanks Mike & Jamie in advance for your donation!!! P.S. If anyone else is planning on bringing a turkey (or anything else that has to be frozen/refrigerated) Please let me know in advance so I can make sure I have a big enough cooler. THANK YOU!!!!</p>

<p>Carrie & Scott...thanks much for checking up on that for us & keeping the turkey from thawing. I just wanted to make sure that it wouldn't go to waste if donations exceeded the capacity to handle them.</p>
<p>...and thanks for taking the time to check into it. That's really appreciated. Shirley (and don't call me Shirley--what movie?? (that's a give-away) said she is going to make three cookie sheets of those thin chocolate thingies. I think they're chocolate. I don't eat them…</p>

(that's a give-away) said she is going to make three cookie sheets of those thin chocolate thingies. I think they're chocolate. I don't eat them but they've been cleaned out at other parties, so I'm assuming they're good. Let's see...one for Carrie, one for Scott...and one for the rest of the party. Sounds fair to me.</p>
<p>But, most of all, we're honored (especially me) to be members of the NMA. She didn't hesitate a second & already brought home a 15# turkey. I've made new friends, learned a lot about muskie fishing, done some conservation projects, won prizes at the raffle table, been involved in community projects (the fishing contest, Outdoor Show at the Ag) & just generally had a good time. What's impressed me most though, is the <strong><em>PASSION</em></strong> of the membership towards the muskie & any group with that much passion has to be on the right track doing the right things, and the fact that the NMA is making a food donation to the less fortunate just shows the heart that is in this club.</p>

<p>I called the Food Bank of WNY, and they assured me that they have freezers and would very much appreciate turkey donations. I will bring a large cooler as transport, and we have a place to store the turkey frozen overnight until we go to the food bank. Thank you Mr. & Mrs. Jaroz in advance for your generosity (and yummy dessert!)</p>

<p>I think the Eldridge Club should be able to keep your bird frozen during the meeting. Carrie and I will do the same until we make the donation. The Food Bank of WNY is a warehouse complete with walk, and drive in freezers and coolers, so there should no problems on there end. Thanks Mr. and Mrs, Jarosz!</p>

<p>Carrie...I took your advice & let my wife know, just like you said.</p>
<p>Anyway, we would also like to donate a frozen turkey (20 lb?). No, not my big, obnoxious uncle standing in the cold, but she grilled me like I was a suspect in a car-jacking, just to make sure the turkey doesn't get thawed early, and also because I don't think of all those things like I should.</p>
<p>So, here's the grilling I got. Can the frozen turkey be taken care of if I bring it to the Dec party? Will it…</p>

<p>So, here's the grilling I got. Can the frozen turkey be taken care of if I bring it to the Dec party? Will it be kept frozen until it's donated to the Food Bank? I can pack it in ice in a cooler during the party.</p>
<p>Does the Food Bank have the facilities to keep it frozen until it's distributed? Scott's not going to use the turkey as a jo-jo ball weight, is he?</p>
<p>I'll also bring <em>at least</em> $20 worth of groceries to the Dec meeting but if the frozen turkey idea falls thru, I'll bring more non-perishables, but the way I figure it, a whole turkey can provide a good meal for a family, plus a lot of left-over turkey sandwiches on rye bread slathered with mayo & a lot of pepper (I'm getting hungry, already). And the family can even make a turkey carcass soup out of the leftover bones. Nothing gets wasted. I even pick my teeth with the beak, but we won't go there.</p>
<p>She loves to make these knock-out deserts but I generally don't eat much of them. I'm not a big desert eater, but she promised to make this thin chocolate thingy that got cleaned out at the last party we went to.</p>
<p>Looking forward to the party!</p>
