| Item | Item Description | Approx Cost | Priority | |
| Toilet Paper | Anything beats the state-issued one-ply that we currently use. There's been a request for Quilted Northern or better. In the past, I know that we've also enjoyed Charmin Ultra Soft, too. | $ | Urgent | Donated by Radar |
| Home Theater Sound System with DVD Player | We are hoping to create an awesome movie-watching/video game-playing atmosphere by getting a surround sound system with a DVD player to accompany our new TV. Anything along these lines will surely be wonderful! | $ | High | Donated by Dave White |
| Grill Tools | To accompany our new grill, we could really use a full set of grill utensils: a brush, tongs, spatula, etc. These items will be used to host plenty more LMAA/active squad tailgates! | $ | High | Donated by Bob Downs |
| Measuring Cups/Spoons | All the chefs and bakers on the squad struggle trying to get that recipe just right! It's hard to do when you've only got a half-cup and a tablespoon to do all your measuring. We are looking for a full set of measuring cups and spoons to help make our measurements precise and our concoctions delicious. | $ | High | Donated by Jeff Brady |
| Knife Set | Johnson sure knows how to cook a mean steak, but it's tough eating them with only a fork and butter knife. We are looking for a nice set of steak knives, anything durable would be great! Additionally, more multi-purpose knives, butcher knives, bread knives, etc would be a great help in the kitchen! | $ | High | Donated by High |
| Blender | Nothing will beat the LMAA Beach Week daiquiri machine, but we would surely like to try making some delicious frozen drinks in the crew hall (non-alcoholic, of course). We've got drink fixin's and counter space, all we need now is a blender! | $ | High | Donated by Elliott and Cindy Rubino |
| Drill | We desperately need a cordless drill for use about the station. One of our more exceptional members once had an 18volt drill, but it was stolen from his vehicle. A hammerdrill would be perfect. If you'd like more detailed information, matt.johnson@vt.edu can help clarify this request. | $ | High | Donated by Ryan and Katie Fletcher |
| Executive Chairs for Front Room and Office | We get lots of use out of the computers in the front room and office, but unfortunately we do so while sitting in very uncomfortable chairs that have either been there for years or weathered chairs we have "borrowed" from the health center. We are hoping to get three cheap, comfortable, nice-looking executive-style office chairs for these three locations. No need for real leather or anything fancy, just something that will look nice, be comfortable, and withstand hours and hours of use. | $ | High | Donated by Kae and Bob Bruch |
| Digital Camera | When the call for pictures comes in at the end of every year to compile our annual slide show, we always end up badgering the few squad photographers for all their best snapshots. What we need is a decent but durable camera that we can keep in the station year-round to capture all of our best moments: nightly trainings, football games, good calls, visits from alumni, and other good times. Help us develop a decent picture collection to preserve the good times for years to come... | $ | High | Donate Item |
| Squad DVDs | A request has been made by several members to acquire some universally-liked, age-appropriate movies to be available at the crew hall for the movie watching pleasure of all duty crews. Ask a college student for suggestions if you need some! Comedies are always a hit... | $ | Medium | Donated by Kae & Bob Bruch |
| Dishwashing Detergent, Hand Soap, and Air Fresheners | Everyone knows how dirty our station can get, hopefully these items should help us keep our station as sparkling as our personalities! | $ | Medium | Donate Item |
| Sauce Pans | We're always cooking at Tech Rescue, and our pots and pans surely have seen lots of use. We are seeking some sauce pans to replace the ones that are getting old and rusty. Help us be able to use a pot without worrying that the handle will fall off! | $ | Medium | Donated by Dwight Polk |
| Cutting Boards | Anything that can be used for meats, poultry, veggies, and anything in between would be terrific! | $ | Medium | Donated by Corey and Megan Pitts |
| Oatmeal | Several members enjoy a delicious and nutritious breakfast after a long night shift... thank goodness for Quaker Oats! Oatmeal stores well and is enjoyed by many. We'd love any varities! | $ | Medium | Donated by Kae & Bob Bruch |
| Throw Pillows for the Couches | We're looking for a few pillows to adorn our four couches in the main room. Anything big and comfortable should do! | $ | Medium | Donated by Jim Key (LMA '97) |
| Coffee Mugs (4-6) | The last mug that was pulled from the cabinet appeared to be promoting the first release of the "Zeiss photography lens" (approximate date... before our birth) and also only holds 6oz. of coffee. How is one expected to pull all-nighters in an attempt to salvage grades without a big honkin' cup of Joe? | $ 20 | Medium | Donated by Jane Wills |
| Blockbuster Gift Cards | Trips to Blockbuster are all too frequent when we're not cramming for exams. A set of five gift cards, 1 for each night crew, would be a huge hit next semester. | $ 50 | Medium | Donate Item |
| Softball Equipment | Last summer was the beginning of the VTRS pennant race against Blacksburg Rescue. WE LOST, but played hard and had a ton of fun. With the red shirt freshmen off the bench, our team looks to perform far better this season. We really need a good slow-pitch softball bat. We also need gloves and softballs. This may be a great team gift because softball equipment is not cheap. New or used would be excellent--we're not picky. | $ | Medium | Donate Item |
| Floor lamp | We used to have a lamp like this but it broke. It was nice to be able to turn the flourescent lights off and have a more homie feel in the Dayroom. | $ 20 | Medium | Donated by Gordy Sachs |
| RECEIVED -- Tool Kit for Station Use | A toolbox filled with screwdrivers, a hammer, measuring tape, level, etc. would prove to be an asset around the station. We always find ourselves perfomring some sort of minor maintenance around the station. Most times that a tool is needed we B-Line for the kitchen. A butter knife nevers works like a real screwdriver! | $ | Low | Donated by Ray McCahery |
| Miscellaneous Virginia Tech Merchandise | Our station is noticeably lacking Hokie Pride in the physical sense. Hold the navy blue and reflective stripes -- we are in desperate need of some maroon and orange. Let your imagination gobble with this request! | $ | Low | Donate Item |
| Shampoo and Liquid Soap | All too often, we find ourselves showering off after a long night of duty to realize that we didn't lug our big bottles of shampoo and soap to the station, oh no! Any donations of communal shampoo or soap would be greatly used and appreciated! | $ | Low | Donate Item |
| Soda | This one has a story behind it... Life Member Jim Key came to visit a few months ago, and on his way out purchased a few dozen sodas. The response by the membership was unbelievable--we loved it. Every member that dropped by got a HUGE smile on their face when they found out that this sodas were for us and were FREE! To keep our smiles high and our thirsts quenched, we would love any donations of Coke, Diet Coke, Mountain Dew, or whatever else you got! | $ | Low | Donate Item |
