Reec Hope For The Holidays
I am always down for a community event. This past Sunday, I attended Reec’ Hope for the Holiday event. The event was just in time to show love to members of the community that need help. It is rough out here and Reec, from www.majicatl.com, along with his non-profit, Positive American Youth and the Venue helps us all out. The event unfortunately started late, due to the turkeys arriving late. It was cold as heck out there, which was the challenge for me and others out there. I felt for the kids and the older adults out there, but this was the 1st event from my understanding, so I am…
