I thought that some of you may want to participate


This is being forwarded around the country. Feel free to pass it along:

Spread the word - Orange and Maroon Effect

Virginia Tech family members across the country have united to declare this Friday, April 20th, an "Orange and Maroon Effect" day to honor those killed in the tragic events on campus Monday, and to show support for Virginia Tech students, faculty, administrators, staff, alumni, and friends. "Orange and Maroon Effect" was born several years ago as an invitation to Tech fans to wear orange and maroon to Virginia Tech athletic events. We invite everyone from all over the country to be a part of the Virginia Tech family this Friday April 20, to wear orange and maroon to support the families of those who were lost, and to support the school and community that are loved so much.

I do not own any orange and maroon, but I will be thinking about them on this day.

In fact LSU plays Va Tech on September 8, 2007 at LSU.

Right now, we are all Hokies. There are huge condolence banners all over campus to sign and send off to them. I hope they know that they are in everyone's thoughts and prayers.

I have one blouse that could be called maroon, and you bet I'll wear it Friday! Thank you for letting us know about this...

There is a guy on the LSU board that I belong to that has that in his signature, it is very cool.

Well I just made me a shirt, I do not have anything that is maroon, but my husband had a maroon sleeveless shirt.

I wrote on it In Memory of the Va. Tech Victims, and I am gonna wear it with a orange tank top on underneath it. The shirt is huge on me, but at least I am wearing something maroon and orange.

Nuh uh...might give me away!
I created some ribbons last night and have been handing them out to coworkers. The colors aren't PERFECT, but I think they look good.




I made nearly 20 and I only have 5 left.
