We will be hosting the Jackie's Magic 2005 Food Drive on Saturday, October 22, 2005 from 6:00-9:00 PM. The event will be in the Boehm Center at Saint Patrick's Church, 15000 Wadsworth Road, Wadsworth, Illinois. This event is being held in the honor of my daughter, Jackie who was tragically killed in a car accident in December of 2003. Jackie was a full time student, worked full time teaching 4 & 5 year olds, taught religious education to second graders at our church, taught aerobics at a local health club and played piano for the Saturday evening mass at our church. A busy schedule for anyone. After she passed away, we discovered that the trunk of her car was full of food. We had found out that she running her own food drive the needy during the holiday season. She had not told anyone about her mission. So, we her family and friends have decided to continue her work by creating the Jackie's Magic 2005 Food Drive. Jackie would assist me on stage for my larger shows.
The admission to the event will be non-perishable food items or cash donations. We will also host a magic show from 7:00-8:30 PM. This show will feature world famous magician Marshall Brodien. And will be hosted by Mark and Sue Holstein, corporate illusionists. Dan Sperry, winner of the IBM international silver award of merit for stage magic at the 2005 IBM convention. Also appearing on the show will be Magic Sam Pope from Chicago, Freddy Fredricks, Steve Jordan and myself. We will be auctioning off autographed Marshall Brodien magic sets and his TV magic cards. All proceeds will go to the Saint Patrick's Food Pantry, Holy Family Soup Kitchen and Saint Anastasia Food Pantry. It will be a great event for a great cause. We will on WGN Morning News channel 9 in Chicago on Monday October 17, 2005 to promote the event. Marshall and I will be on the show to talk about the event, and Dan Sperry will provide a performance. This event is being held on Make A Difference Day. This project has also been registered as a Make A Differece Day project. You can see more info on this at http://www.makeadiffereceday.com under our project name.
