Mike Pound: Economy taking a toll on Magic Moments Yep, things are tough at Magic Moments right now, but Jeanne and her son, John, are hanging in there. Times have been tough before, Jeanne said, and somehow they’ve always managed to pull through. This particular time seems to be the toughest, but Jeanne plans to fight on. She told me Tuesday that she was meeting with her board that night to discuss the upcoming Bowling Roundup. There has been some discussion of canceling the fund-raiser because of the upfront costs associated with it.
“But I think we’re going to take a chance and go for broke and hope it works,” she said. Jeanne also had another thought. See, Magic Moments has an account set up at Arvest Bank. Folks can walk in and make a donation, or they can mail their donation. It’s a neat deal. “If 10,000 people were to donate $5, we would have enough to operate for a year,” she said. I told Jeanne I hope that happens. Jeanne said that, assuming the board opts to go ahead with the Bowling Roundup, it will be held Feb. 7 at Bowl East. She said folks who want information about the fund-raiser can call her at (417) 325-4490. And for more information, you can dial up the Magic Moments Web page at www.ridingtherapy.com.
