CF: National Flip Flop Day

Anyone ever eat at a Tropical Smoothie Cafe? They created National Flip Flop day every 2 nd Friday of June.

HISTORY

In 2007, Tropical Smoothie Cafe created National Flip Flop Day to celebrate its 10th anniversary. Every year on this date, customers who come into participating Cafes across the nation wearing flip-flops receive a free Jetty Punch Smoothie. Tropical Smoothie then gives proceeds of a $1 paper flip flop from customers to send ill children and their families to Camp Sunshine.

Camp Sunshine is based in Casco, Maine, and their mission is focused solely on addressing the effects of a life-threatening illness on every member of the immediate family — the child, the parents and the siblings. This year-round program is free of charge to families.

In 2015, $1 million was raised by Tropical Smoothie Cafe for Camp Sunshine. The total amount raised since the beginning in 2007 is over $3.7 million making National Flip Flop Day a successful fundraiser for Camp Sunshine.

Anyway, lets do a Flip Flop swap! It can be anything, you have to send.

From Mail Art, to a note in a notecard, too sending flip flops in a flat item! Just something Flip Flops!

I love my Flip Flops in summer!
