Some of you remember this from last year. The generosity of the board was absolutely incredible. I was invited to the Lions night of giving in November, and watched them give out checks to all sorts of charities. The best thing they donated to had to be the Putnam Police Dog, Cero. Donations from TiB help buy him his "training reward balls", which are apparently 20 times tougher than tennis balls. Why? Because he can pop a tennis ball in one bite. He's a bad ass mofo. Previously, donations to the Lions bought him a doggie bullet-proof vest. Any donation anyone wants to make is welcome and much appreciated. Even $1 helps these guys out. Last year, I raised $1230, and the bulk of it was from the members of this board. I was able to get a few people t-shirts from the tournament, and your donations got the TiB logo on the sleeve of the shirt. I would love to get the logo on the shirt again this year, and I would love to beat the $1230 mark from last year. My goal this year is to hit $2k in donations and watch the Lions' heads spin. Donations can be sent via check made payable to "The Putnam Lions Club". PM me for my address. Or, you can paypal donations to boostedfc@hotmail.com. Also, I've worked out a deal with the head Lion: Anyone who donates $50 or more gets a t-shirt. Lots of you donated $50 or more last year and I would have loved to send each of you a shirt, so that's why I made that deal. However, since he orders them before the tournament, there will have to be a cut-off date of March 1st for that deal. If you are willing to donate $50 or more, please include your t-shirt size and mailing address with your donation, shipping of the shirt is on me. As Nett and Chater will attest, I will ship to Oh, Canada! as well. Thanks in advance for all your generosity and support!
If I can find volleyball girls that are worthy of that section and would be willing to contribute, I will.
I kicked in a bit like I did last year, and I'll second the boss man's suggestion. If you can find some players like those in the Xmas thread, I think you'll double your contributions easily.
We actually got our team together tonight for a league, and we fuckin' checked those fools. I seriously expect to not lose a game with this year's team.
OK guys, we're five weeks out and donations/pledges are holding steady at the $600 mark, so here's today's friendly bump for donations. Thanks!
The deadline for donations for T-shirts is rapidly approaching. So far, donations are way down compared to last year. The economy just sucks.
Last day for donations to make the shirt cut-off is Thursday. I gotta give Bernie a number then. Donations are holding at $690, just a bit more than half of last year.
Bernie just e-mailed me, he said he got extra shirts for any late donators. He's also putting the logo on the sleeve again.
Awesome, thanks!!! OK guys, like I said in the drunk thread, $200 by 2 a.m. EST (when we move the clocks forward) and I will post a pic of the wifey in the Booty thread. $350 by then, booty AND boobie thread. JC62 got you 62.5% of the way to dat azz.
Don't worry, I will, just like last year. One week til tourney time: Let's crank up the donations to a good cause! We had our last tune up match today in our regular league. We were fucking KILLING shit tonight. Everything I hit was a fucking kill, I was an assassin. Felt really good to bomb shit knowing that next Saturday is go time.
Any last minute donations have about 24 hours. I have a couple people who declined T-shirts for their donations, so I can give those shirts I had set aside to YOU if you donate ASAP!!
