On March 27, 2008 April Fowlkes and Mindy Corby will find out if they are the 2008 Detroit Red Cross' People's Choice Hero Award recipients. April and Mindy have been nominated for capturing one of the car thieves that stole Nicole's and Kiwi's cars last year from practice. In order for April and Mindy to win, they must receive the most votes from the public.
To vote for April and Mindy, visit http://www.semredcross.org/index.php?section=93 by March 14, 5 pm. You can vote as many times as you like so bookmark the page, and vote every time you go online, change websites, check your email, think about the Demolition... You get the picture.
They are up against some stiff competition including two firefighters (but they get trained and paid to be heroes.)
You can read more about the award in the March 3rd Free Press, Local Section, - http://www.freep.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=2008803040340.
April and Mindy won't find out if they won until the night of the awards dinner which is Thursday, March 27, 6 pm at the Somerset Inn in Troy. Tickets are $75.00 and can be purchased on the Red Cross website. Let's try to make a great showing for them.
How appropriate that they are nominated during Women's History Month.
Spread the word to all your Demolition friends and fans!

Remember the dignity of your womanhood. Do not appeal, do not beg, do not grovel. Take courage, join hands, stand beside us, fight with us.
