Local Charities Can Win BIG With Your Help #TeamStripes

Blog· Charity· Events

#TeamStripes

We’re kicking the GMC Hashtag Challenge with a bang! If you participate you can win a Country Fair VIP Ticket Pack.

There will be three events today (July 12th) going on around different locations around town. It’s your chance to support Snowball Express and Patriot Paws Service Dogs. If you post a picture with ‪#‎TeamStars‬ (For Snowball Express) or ‪#‎TeamStripes‬ (For Patriot Paws) to Twitter or Instagram during the events below, the radio stations will enter you to win a VIP Package for Country Fair 2013.

  • 10a-3p: Team Stars with KSCS at Denton Water Works Park, 2400 Long Road, Denton
  • 12p-2p: Team Stripes with the WOLF at WetZone Waterpark, 5304 Main St. Rowlett
  • 7:30p-9p: Team Stars & Stripes with KSCS at NRH2O Waterpark, N. Richland Hills

If you’re not able to make it, just Retweet your teams pictures but make sure you use the correct hashtag depending on which team you are supporting. Both organizations do amazing things to help our community.

Snowball Express supports the children and the surviving spouses of the great men and women who have given their lives for our country since 9/11. What many people tend to forget is that the soldier is not the only one giving and serving. Each family member of every soldier also serves. They live each day knowing that their husband or wife, son or daughter, mom or dad may never come home. And when a soldier dies, these families are left behind to carry on without their hero. We must continue to support these families who have given so much. We owe it to the heroes who gave their life, and to the spouses and children who gave us their hero. If you wish to cheer on Snowball Express, use the hashtag #TeamStars on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram and post a picture of the GMC Sierra.

The other organization that is competing is Patriot Paws Service Dogs. The mission of Patriot PAWS is to train and provide service dogs of  their highest quality at no cost to disabled American veterans and others with mobile disabilities in order to help restore their physical and emotional independence. Patriot PAWS intends to build partnerships with the state and community organizations to help develop and support this goal. If you wish to cheese on Patriot Paws, use the hashtag #TeamStripes on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram and post a picture of the GMC Sierra. If you don’t have a picture, use the one in this post and hashtag away!

DFW area GMC Dealers will donate $8,000 to the charity that receives the most hashtagged photos on Twitter and Instagram between 7/9/13 and 8/18/13 at 11:59 pm Central time. The runner up will receive $2,000.

One of my favorite things about 2020.... businesse One of my favorite things about 2020.... businesses adapting and making things work! I was recently introduced to @savageburritos and I'm in love.  Savage Burritos is the love child of Uncle Julios so it you like UJ, you'll love Savage.  They are a delivery only service offering burritos and bowls from select Uncle Julio kitchens in DFW. We ordered a variety of items from burritos, bowls, queso and more. Every single item was bursting with flavor. If you like spicy,  I highly recommend the Nashville Hot Chicken Burrito. 🔥 Don't forget to add on a Margarita pop - nothing beats alcohol and Mexican food delivered straight to your door!

Order directly from their site your from your favorite delivery service!
I know this year has dragged on and on for many pe I know this year has dragged on and on for many people but it has flown by to me. I'm 100% sure it has something to do with welcoming Myles into this world during the height of a pandemic and keeping a toddler alive at the same time.  I can't wait for Christmas morning to make memories with my little family (even though Christmas shopping isn't complete and I haven't even thought about wrapping presents). It will all fall in to place, it always does. We didn't attend our favorite Christmas events this year or get pictures with Santa so this random Santa picture will do and I'm 100% happy with it.  If this year has taught you anything,  let it be finding the joy in the little things ❤
The holidays are quickly approaching! 🎄 Althoug The holidays are quickly approaching! 🎄 Although things might be a bit different this season, we're still enjoying some of our favorite foods and traditions. This year we're incorporating ordering family meal kits from @chuysrestaurant for not only my family but extended family that we might not be able to hang with this holiday.  It's a simple way to spread the joy with loved ones, eat delicious food and not forget the reason for the season.  #ad #nachoaverageholiday
Family pictures are always so much fun.... this ye Family pictures are always so much fun.... this year we got to attempt it twice thanks to sweet Bryce.  Thankfully the second time around he cooperated. As painful as they may be,  I'm so glad we get these done every year. I love looking back at them and see how much we've all changed and how much the kids have grown!
Can y'all believe the end of the year is here? We Can y'all believe the end of the year is here? We got our family pictures back and they look great other than the fact that Bryce decided not to participate. We got one shot with my entire family and Bryce is off to the side playing in poison ivy. 🤦‍♀️

I wanted to send a quick thank you for all the birthday love yesterday! Birthdays are not my favorite day but it was nice to hear from so many people. Here's to another year around the sun ❤
This weekend we ventured to @kidzaniausa, a city r This weekend we ventured to @kidzaniausa, a city ran completely by kids. Your child gets to fully immerse themselves into role playing any job they can imagine. From checking animals at the veterinarian, putting out fires as a firefighter,  flying planes in an simulator, creating their own personal logo with Bic, or being a weatherman at WFAA - the options are endless! Kidzania activities are for ages 4 and up.

We felt very comfortable inside with their safety protocols. Temperatures were checked before entering.  Everybody ages 4 and up must wear a mask.  Hand sanitizer was readily available throughout the entire space.  If you're looking for a fun outlet for your child to explore, check it out!
