More About Treehouse
Treehouse For Kids provides services for foster children that no other agency addresses: money for extra-curricular activities and summer camp, professional educational support services, resources to fully participate in the everyday activities of growing up, clothing and supplies to help them fit in at school and more.
Treehouse for Kids wants to make the holiday season special for every child by holding toy drives for foster kids in the community. Each toy donated goes directly to a foster child. "It may look like a warm jacket or a bright new toy, but to a child living in foster care it's so much more: it's a message that someone cares. That's something every child deserves."

Enjoy.

That vid is sweet! I was at that show, but rocking out up near the bar with a Red Stripe in hand. Still had great site-lines; not hardly a bad view in the Showbox. Nice to re-live the memory...

Hey, I'm goin' to Hatties tomorrow for lunch, and I'll be at the Tractor on the 9th as well! You should check out some other shows there in December by the way.
