@sir Hallow do you think it would be possible to use this group photo in a story/social media blast about this event?

Ok I posted this to our front page as well. I also scheduled it to post again to our front page on November 1st as well. This will automatically post to our twitter account and be visible to all of our followers both today and on the later posting. 

Thanks for the heads up on this. Love helping get the word out on charity work!

I am not exactly sure why it is doing that at the moment. I need to dig into it a little further. For now since the date is in the actual post I will remove the event piece and adjust it when I get it figured out.

Dang it!  I lived in the QC for three years and didn't even know about you guys!  I thought it was just brainwashed Chicago fans down there. :p

Agreed Jimmy. I have a scheduled post on the front page to post on Nov 1st. When it posts, as soon as someone comments on it on the front page it will automatically create a post here with a link to the story that we can pin to the top.
