Doin' God's Work-Phase II

This is great you are doing this....wish I was in town to help. FYI....Specs off 75 has some Texas State koozies at the registers....those need to be replaced with some UNT. Also, the Humperdinks off Greenville has every local college flag except UNT. It's right in SMU's backyard. On another note, when I wear my Conference USA NT shirt, I get several people asking me where I got it. I wager it's hard to go into public and not be around someone who graduated or is attending our great school. Good things ahead. Go Mean Green.

Specs had tons of UNT koozies. Owners are UNT alum. I posted pictures a while back. Someone else posted a video of the UNT steel drum band at the specs grand opening.

I like what you're doing, but you have to admit, this is not God's work.

I'll be there.

I will work on our very own Diet Coke Boy tonight at the F.C. Dallas game.

Well, you certainly brought FC DAllas home a win...how'd you do with "Diet Coke" boy???? :-)

Glad to have you with us on the 28th...

Yes, we can all admit that...but, I will also say that volunteering to help in a postive endeavor can, indeed, be considered "God's work"...but if it offends you in any way, you have my apologies.

Would you like to volunteer to help...or are you on board just to add a bit of criticism for those who have volunteered to give part of their Saturday to help in a positive manner? Glad you like the idea. We could use your help.

Seriously, would love to have you join us...we can call this "Doin' GanfGreen's Work" if it makes you feel better...anything to help encourage volunteers, right?

I think he was just criticising the event name, not the volunteers. None the less, it'd be great if we had a catchy name for this and made it an annual event. Maybe "Paint North Texas Green Day" or "Rub Some Green On It Day". I obviously wasn't a marketing major, but you catch my drift.

Todd, I get that 100%. It just is like clockwork around here that someone...who is not a volunteer...comes up with some criticism of something.

We can definitely come up with an "official name' for the event...BUT, it will come from the actual volunteers themselevs...you know, the ones who have actually given of their time, talent and dollars to help with the event. So, be thinking of what we might could call this little event going forward...

Seeing as I've been doing this for going on twele years now...and I'm glad to see it adopted as a collaborative effort...might I be so forward as to officially name it? I propose "Get The Green Out" day. Kinda refers to getting the posters out and getting the MG nation (people) out to put them up.

Oak Street Draft House & Cocktail Parlor will gladly allow a poster and schedules. They'll go great with our NT Battle flag flying proudly out front. (308 E. Oak St Denton TX USA)

I can't speak for them but Im confident Weinbergers Deli and Mellow Mushroom will also be happy to support the MGN. Some good people running those places.

Just want to remind all our volunteers for tomorrow's first "GET THE GREEN OUT" day event that we will meet at 9:00AM at the UNT ALUMNI PAVILUION at Apogee. I have the posters, push pins and tape available to be passed out to all participants, so you do not need to bring your own "stuff". In addition, I will provide juice, coffee and a breakfast snack to all who wish to have a drink or snack before heading out on your appointed rounds.

I'll also have assignments for all as to areas of coverage. Some have already requested areas, so that's fine...others have not...no worry, all will be accommodated.

ALSO...and this is a biggie....remember that I-35 in this area is being shut down tonight to place the pedestrian bridge across the highway....says the highway will be shut down from 10PM until 8:00AM Saturday morning...well, we meet at 9AM, so if they time it right it should not matter, but just in case...be prepared and start out early on your journey to the Alumni pavilion. You can exit at Ft. Worth Drive if you are coming from the south and go south on Ft. Worth Drive to Roselawn and follow Roselawn around to the stadium, or you can exit at Ft. Worth Drive and go to eagle and down Eagle Dr. and wind through the campus to hit Bonnie Brae...or if coming from the North just exit at Bonnie Brae....we should all enter in front of the stadium...not on the access road to I-35 as that stadium entrance will more than likely be closed!

I really want to thank everyone who has volunteered for this little event...should be fun ...REMEMBER to WEAR YOUR GREEN! We definitely want folks to know that we are members of the Mean Green Nation as they see us out and about!
