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.

You may just be right there Mary and they do say everything comes in three's.....Michael's dad used it and Michael himself uses it a lot so, you never know !!! :)   I am a great, great, great believer in the 3's !!! LOL

Sylvia,

I saw the video but I have a question: Michael said:  "check in with me", what does it mean?

thanks

Hi Silvy and what Michael actually says is: "checking in with me" and what that means, in the context he is using it in is, getting in touch with him, as we did by sending him cards etc.

Yes I have heard good things come in 3's, too!

He's gonna "Smile" so Big...then he might turn his head so nobody sees that tear coming from Emotions:)! He knows he's Loved, but this is gonna be Big...Michael Bolton Big...LMBO!

Hi Mary,

I'm with you on that one, only I have a feeling Michael will be so totally thrilled he may be overwhelmed with gratitude. So I expect there maybe tears, not only his but Ours!

Have a Great Day! Lot's of snow here in Indy!
