Geeks raise almost $900 for Charity – Sometimes being a geek is a good thing…

THE SHOALS – They named it themselves. “The Geek Gathering” – A first for The Shoals. It raised $863-dollars for Big Brothers – Big Sisters, according to Nick Franks and Gina Mashburn. Nick is one of the principals of On The Rocks, and Gina heads up the charity organization that serves at-risk children.

The money will be used to assist Big Brothers – Big Sisters in their daily operations.
