On Tuesday, June 19, 2007…all day long…Tully’s will donate 20% of all store revenue to support the JP Patches statue fund and Children’s Hospital.   

Please support your local clown and Puget Sound treasure.    We have Tully’s conveniently on Alki and Fauntleroy in West Seattle.

Or…you can purchase a Patches Pal Paver and have your name along side this beautiful statue to be located in Fremont.    The statue will have JP and long time friend, Gertrude standing next to ICU2 TV.   The TV will have a slot to accept donations for Children’s Hospital and any surplus funds raised to build the statue will also benefit Children’s.

These photos are from the unveiling of the future statue that took place earlier this year during February in Fremont.

My husband surprised me the following  month when JP Patches appeared at my birthday party!  Yes…obviously, I’m a Patches Pal.    And I (along with many) adore JP.    I remember watching him on KIRO in the wee hours of the morning before school and getting to watch him again after school.    I always looked forward to seeing him.     JP Patches show aired from 1958 to 1981 entertaining and teaching many of us Puget Sound Natives in our younger days. 

Don’t be a Gorrrssssst…support JP!  Besides…your donations are tax deductible.

Once again People For Puget Sound is having some fun on the beach this weekend.   The West Seattle Shoreline Adventure is happening Sunday, June 3, from 11:30 am – 3:30 pm.   For more information, click this link.
