MDA Lock Up

I was "arrested" today and participated in the MDA "Lock Up". It was alot of fun and I don't usually do benefits like these (I normally stay with pet benefits since I have a dog), but I wanted to expand my circle and be involved in a great cause.
MDA Lock-Up
Local business and community leaders agree to be "arrested" for having a "big heart" in the fun, MDA Lock-Up. This unique community-wide event raises funds for people with neuromuscular diseases.

So anyways, lol, what happened is that I arrived to the restaurant that was hosting the event Jillian's which is super close to where I live. Anyways, I go there to turn myself in since there is a warrant for my "arrest"......heehee......let me show you!

OH NO! A Warrant for my Arrest!!!!!

Isn't that great!! I never had a warrant out for my arrest before! And then you have to post bail by making a donation which I did (my Mom was with me and she helped post my bail) which wasn't a set amount of money, just a small donation helps. I took some pictures of the room where they have table set up to socialize and Jillian's provided food.......

I arrived at the later part of the day. This event went from 11am to 3pm and I showed up around 2:30. After you post your bail (make a donation), you are paroled by a judge......I HAD TO FACE A JUDGE......I was so scared she wouldn't parole me.......I sauntered over to her and pleaded my case......

Please go easy on me.....I'm a good citizen....

And she slammed the gavel down and stamped my donation sheet "Paroled" and she said if I do this again I would be a repeat offender and I told her you might as well label me as a repeat offender cause you will see me in "court" again, so she gave me this.......

Which is now on my back window of my car! :) I didn't know what to expect in this benefit but they are having another "Lock Up" in September in Londonderry, so I WILL be more prepared to collect donations and be more involved in this benefit than I was today. I just didn't know what to expect. It was so much fun. I think I'll drag everyone I know into this the next time it comes around. So BEWARE! You just might be in the "Lock Up" with me!! :) Have a great night! :) Oh, one more picture before I sign off......they gave me a t-shirt and of course, I had to share it with Jake :)
