I posted this in Flimsies, but it's such a great story I'll mention it here too. USA WEEKEND, an entertainment supplement to a lot of Saturday papers, made one of their national recognition awards to a 10-year old railfan that collected enough cans to buy out a special trip on the Arcade & Attica - and donate seats to 84 underprivilidged kids. Nice photo of the kid, and the unmistaken orange of the A&A on the COVER of USA WEEKEND. Great recognition for the boy, J.T. Robertson, and his idea certainly has more legs under it than just one boy with one idea. |
