Funraising at True Value
Success! We crushed the competition at this particular Bandera street corner.
By "competition," I mean girl scouts, of course, and by "crushed," I mean they were tired so they donated their cupcakes to us.
True Value was very nice to us, and allowed us use their electricity and one of their parking spaces today.

and Johnny Boyle (he was the one who moved the van out of the parking space for us).
We were there from 10:30 in the morning until about 3:30, I guess, and Anthony and I (I = Elliott) screamed our heads off for just about the entire time. (The other people helped too). Our menu looked something like this:
We only sold about 5 pickles, but the sno-cones (how do you spell that?) and sausage wraps sold quite well.
Oh, and we made $295 today, including about $70 from nice people who didn't even want any food. That makes 475 total dollars that we have.
Thanks to all of our supporters; we hope to see you again :)

Since you asked. . .(
"Funraising at True Value" - Just how much fun was raised, and were there any associated funds?
"and Johnny Boyle (he was the one who moved the van out of the parking space for us)." Was this orphaned fragment intended to be a part of something bigger?
Quite a bit of fun was raised, actually, from the screaming to the running through traffic to the talking to Iowans. Raising funds causes raising fun.
<3 means literally, "heart," as you can see by turning your head sideways. It can act like a verb, among other things. The True Value logo is acting like a pronoun, so The sentence really reads: "Heart heart True Value and Johnny Boyle..."
Aha!
CORRECTION: True Value let us use not one, but THREE parking spaces, a nice roof to shield us from ultraviolet rays, 110 Volts AC power, and an H2O connection.
