DESCRIPTION:December 6, 2008\n\nRedbird's Blanket, Toy and School Supplies Drive\n\n10 
 a.m. – 4 p.m. Rain or Shine\nPotluck, Drumming, Good Friends Old and 
 New\n\nSimi Valley Library Community Room\n2969 Tapo Canyon Road, Simi 
 Valley, California\n\nWhat we are looking for:\n\nBlankets \nNew, 
 light-weight throw blankets that can be used for personal warmth.  These 
 are sent to places like Porcupine, South Dakota and need to be light and 
 hand or machine washable (dry-clean only is not practical).  These can be 
 purchased from $3.00 to $7.00 at pharmacy stores and most major chain 
 stores such as Target, WalMart and so forth. (Heavier blankets and gently 
 used items stay local – they are given to United American Indian 
 Involvement for distribution among their clients if they are new, and taken 
 to places like Haramokngna American Indian Cultural Center if they are 
 used.  Thanks to last year's drive, all the beds in the barracks at 
 Haramokngna now have comforters and a few even have 
 sheets).\n\nToys\nStuffed toys are usually shipped with blankets to 
 Porcupine.  All other boxed, hard-edged or fragile toys stay locally in the 
 Southern California area and donated to local groups serving American 
 Indian (and other) families.\n\nSchool Supplies\nThese are given to Walking 
 Shield, which has a distribution network far superior to our own.  They are 
 brought to OCB Trading Post where Walking Shield collects 
 them.\n\nDonations for Shipping\nFinancial contributions to help offset the 
 cost of shipping blankets and delivering supplies are always welcome, and 
 this year we could really use the help.  You can contribute via cash, 
 check, money order, through paypal at the email address listed below, or by 
 joining the eScrip program.  Call, write or log on to our website.\n\nFor
