TheBullDog wrote about 1 year ago Here are some of the details - When we stopped in at the center to deliver our donations on Sunday morning it was raining pretty good - but the shelter was in full swing of feeding breakfast to alot of people. I would guess there were at least 75 people there looking for something warm to eat and drink...and more walking in from different directions. When we brought in the meager donations we had, and they opened the room they sort and keep the items in it was clear they were running low on all items - most all of the bins in the room were near or completely empty. The volunteers were very appreciative and in the interest of preserving a little bit of privacy we chose not to take any pictures of the center - had they not been in full swing of feeding the people we may have.

WannaRide wrote about 1 year ago I hope this area is considered again -- it is one of our most favorite places to ride. Unfortunately the timing just didn't work for us this time. But thanks to you and Mrs. BullDog and Mr. and Mrs. Hollywood for "suiting up and showing up". Have an address where future donations could be made for this center? ______________________ ~~Kellie |

BullDog We enjoyed so much our trip to Maggie Valley and thanks to M & M TheBulldog for all the planning that they put into this trip it made it even more special. This is an awesome area to ride and the people there are great!! Gabi was fabulous and she really knocks herself out to make sure everyone is comfy and having a good time. Going to the shelter was quite an experience for me. I have never been to a homeless shelter before and to see all the different people there was very emotional for me. One man who sticks out in my mind was dressed in a suit and dress shoes. I did not get a look as his face, only the back of him as he walked hurriedly past me with his breakfast in hand. I thought to myself how strange that he would dress like that. . .was that the way he was used to dressing at one time in his life or was it because he always wanted to dress that way and had to become homeless to be able to wear that suit and those shoes. . . made me wish we had the means to do this every weekend!! For those that could not attend - - we missed you and you missed a good time and a very humbling experience. Blessings on you all, Mrs.H |
