Brainstorming for our Michael's birthday

 

Hi everyone, well this is my first attempt at starting a discussion so hope I’m doing this right... :D . A couple of weeks ago, I asked Gail when she thought would be a proper time to start thinking of what we fans want to do for our Michael’s 60th birthday. She said she was out of ideas, but suggested I’d start a thread asking fans for suggestions. I figure we have exactly 4 months, starting today,  to come up with something fun and get mobilised to achieve it. I’m no organizer, I just thought we could share ideas so let’s put our heads together and see what we can come up with! :D Take care and hugs to all, sincerely, Sylvie from Canada J

*The 2 most popular suggestions so far are:

 

- individual donations to michaelboltoncharities.com, mentionning they are made in honor of Michael’s birthday, of any amount you feel comfortable with.

-a collective wall-hanging made from personalized fabric squares sent by fans that will be stitched together. The 4 inch/10 cm squares (with small blank margin) only need have your signature and location but can be crafty as you are able. For

more info, ask here, or PM either me, or Amie Angeli who will be doing the stitching and presenting the finished product to our Michael.

 

**Note: The final deadline for recieving fabric squares is February 15th, so you don't have much time left. :D

**It would also mean a lot to Michael if fans donate to the Red Cross for victims of hurricane Sandy at:

www.redcross.org/

then E-mail Gail at boltoninfo@aol.com with your name and location, so she can add  them to the MBC donors list.

**If you feel strongly about sending Michael a card or personal gift, you may send it to:

Michael Bolton

c/o Michael Bolton Charities

P.O. Box 936

Branford, CT 06405

U.S.A.

*Note that the deadline for recieving cards and presents is February 20th 2013, whether you send them to either Gail or Michael Bolton Charities.

Hey all. MB had the cake brought on stage but the card did not get brought out with it. We don't know why. But best news is I asked him since he did a book cd signing after the show. He loves it and said Thank You to all of us. I said it was from fans around the world. Hope we see a pic of him with it. I have pics of it being signed. All of you who asked your names were signed by me. Tammy was dealing w the cake and gave me her list. The show rocked..MB loved the cake. Pics soon. I have to go home tomorrow. Will post soon. Before I go to Chester Fri. MB truly loved the cake and card. Sorry guys it did not get given on stage...but I want you all to know he loves it.

Sorry for the short note. It is late here and riding to my friend's house. You all were with us in spirit.

Robin in MD. :)

Thanks Gail for link and thanks Robin for up date and as long as he got both cake and card the means by which don't really matter !! :)  So glad you got to talk to him after and I bet he is glad for a 2 day respite.....OMG, I can hear him snoring across the pond !!!!! LOL.

What I did mean to say in my previous post was that last night I got an e-mail from Andrena and in it what she mentioned was that she was sending MB a list of all the donations made to MBC and the Red Cross via e-mail yesterday.....so looks as though he got that information on his birthday which I think is pretty neat and as I said to Andrena just a pity that her e-mail didn't have a little camera attached so that we could have seen the expression on his face when he read her message !!! lol
