News Mayor has lotsa 'fans'
Posted by Mara Shalhoup on Fri, Jul 25, 2008 at 8:40 PM
SCANA Energy has donated 1,000 fans to the city as part of the seventh annual We Hope Young People Bake Day "Help Atlanta's Elderly Stay Cool Campaign" hosted by Mayor Shirley Franklin and the Atlanta Fire Rescue.
Starting Mon., July 28, low-income elderly residents can call 404-330-6026 to register and find out the nearest fire station to pick up their free wind circulator. Fire stations providing fans are listed after the jump.
P.S. If you're a college-aged cheapskate who just wants a free fan, you best not get any bright ideas to dress up like the late Estelle Getty and try to freeload. Not cool, for a variety of reasons.
