I remember when we started the "BUCK BAG" campaign at that time when we raised money to begin the building of the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion. We took those bags with us everywhere and passed it up and down the aisles encouraging everyone to contribute solid greenbacks and checks. I'll never forget my first community event where ( when I passed the bag) I got over $150 in singles and then some guy looked into the bag and shouted, "What's wrong with you pikers? Dig into your pockets and either write a check or pull out a couple bills and fill up this bag". He promptly threw in beautiful brand new $100.00 bill and stood there until the rest of the row put in $50's and $20's. - Adele Bloom
