    OK Gang, with just a few hours to go we have had a few more donations trickle in.

    For those of you who haven't donated, please consider making a $5 or $10 donation tonight. Every bit counts.

    As of right now, we have an exact total of $2700!!!! This is the money that I currently have in hand. I have some more money coming from Stainless and another member which should total $100 additional $$$$ towards the fund.

    Let us really try and reach that big $3000 mark. I know we can do it!!!!

    Thanks gang for everything you are doing!!!

    Joe and Anthony

    Mike, sorry I didn't pm you the total, but figured that you keep a close eye out on this thread. I appreciate you stepping into RickieB's shoes while he gets better.

    And a big thanks to you Ken and everyone else who have contributed to our cause. We couldn't have done it without all of you!!!!

    Yep, if you read my directions on page one, it should be clear, but basically just send a gift to me under the personal section and there should not be any fee assessed, although I have been told by a couple of members that if you don't have any funds already in your account that you may be charged a small fee. Let me know if you have any problems. I will be stepping away from my computer for a few hours so I can mow the lawn before it rains tomorrow. You have my cell number so call me if you need to talk. Thanks Tom.

    The web banner for this has a misspelling: "to benefeit Shriner's hospital" -- it should read "benefit".

    I tried to contact the administrator on this, but couldn't get the message to go through. Maybe you'll have more luck.

    No problem :thumb:. It's getting close to the top!

    Well, if you weren't at the top, you are now! Of course, nothing says we can't go higher...sorta like the Seinfeld episode where Kramer sees how far he can go before running outta gas!

    Thanks to Stainless, jaceravone, and everyone that made this a success! :hail:

    um....you mean you waited for the WHOLE thing to be over with before you decided to let anyone know?! LOL

    Well, everyone knows that a good marketing guy will use SOMETHIGN to catch people's eye to his ad. The mis-spelled word caught your eye, and I hope others. Maybe those that caught it will donate to the cause!

    The book did sell by the way - $85 went to the fund, and the new owner has the book in hand!

    DRUM ROLL Please!!!!!! The new total...........thanks to a very generous donor is...................................drum roll! $3,020!!!!!! We did it!!!!!!! This person put us over the top!!!! Thank you such much!!!

    And a big thanks to all of you who donated as well because every dollar counts. Of course this will not be the final amount. I am still waiting on a few donations to arrive in the mail, plus I am hoping that a few more donations will trickle in here in the next few hours. If all the donations come in as expected, we should top the $3100 mark definitely and even beyond. I have yet to make my full donation, so this will add to the overall number. The new goal is now going to be $3300.

    Come on gang....I know there are a few of you out there just itching to make a donation, so get to it!!!! The directions are simple.....go to paypal, chose send money...enter in my email address jaceravone@gmail.com.....go to the personal tab and chose gift and then hit the send button. Its that easy. Thanks for everything gang.

    Although the fund raiser ends tonight, it may be a day or two before Anthony and I discuss all the donations and who the top donors are. Although, we won't mention names, we will post the top donations for everyone to see. The next big task is contacting everyone who has opted in for a prize and letting them know what they won. Anthony has coordinated with those of you who donated prizes and he will instruct you where to send your prize donation. This has been a tremendous year and a tremendous fund raiser and all of you should be proud. Thanks again for everyone's hard work.

    Joe and Anthony.
