Club Kaboom aids Hurricane Ike victims, by Shanna Manders
Club Kaboom held a Donation Drive on September 27, 2008 for all of the people in Oak Island and surrounding communities that lost everything. Club Kaboom Volleyball Club is owned and operated by Shafonia Bolanos. It is a Non-Profit Organization that works with Volleyball players from different areas in hopes of a Scholarship upon graduation. Her first year in business, Shafonia received scholarships for five out of seven girls and each year since has been similar. The Club has been in business for four years now.
The drive consisted of clothing (men’s, women’s, teen’s, children and baby), dry goods, towels, blankets, food, water, bathing necessities and many, many more items. Club Kaboom had a sixteen-foot U-haul truck completely full when the day was over. Everything was unloaded at the Double Bayou Community Center, hours of operation are Monday thru Saturday from 2:00 til 6:00.
We would like to thank Shafonia and Club Kaboom (girls and parents) for all of their help working the drive and the donations. |
BELOW ARE
SOME PICTURES OF THE DRIVE AND
DEVASTATION ON THE ISLAND
Updated
info: FEMA trailers are now
supposed to be furnished, so no
additional donations are needed
at this time. Plan to do
something for Christmas for the
residents like adopting a family
per team or the like.

Update on Shafonia's Uncle Joe
as of 12-17-08 - Still
continuing chemo treatments.
Doctor says that the chemo has
doen more than he ever dreamed
and Uncle Joe is almost in full
remission. We know that
this type of cancer will
undoubtedly become immune to the
treatments sooner than later and
win out eventually. We are
just grateful for the additional
time to spend with him. He
is feeling reasonably well and
just taking things day by day.
Please say an extra little
prayer for him next week as he
will under go an outpatient
surgery to have a port put in
since his veins can no longer
handle the chemo treatments.
Thoughts and prayers are of
course plenty, but for those of
you that are insistent, feel
free to send Memaw whatever
you would like direct to: Clara
Wood, 784 Billstown Rd, Delight,
AR 71940. Thank you all!
