When it comes to fundraisers, some people enjoy getting dressed up and going to a fancy gala type of event, while others prefer to go shopping for school supplies, toys, or food items - and then there are the people who want to grab a rifle and shoot something...for charity! The Ronald McDonald House Charities of the Ohio Valley had that last group of folks in mind when they created the Clays for a Cause fundraiser.

"Clays" is, of course, a reference to skeet shooting. But don't worry if you're not an experienced shooter - what's more important than your skill or knowledge of guns and shooting, is your passion for the Ronald McDonald House and their efforts to keep families with sick children together. Plus, there's more to Clays for a Cause than just shooting things. The event will also include food, entertainment, games, prizes, a silent auction, and a bourbon pull.

Do You Remember These Vintage McDonald's Glasses?

Long before we had the luxury of finding collectibles on the internet, we had to remember to get to our local McDonald's every week to get the next collectible glass. Yes, back in the late 70s and into the 1990s, McDonald's offered some really cool glasses. Here's a look at some of them that I found on eBay.
