Can we take some funds and donate something from ONSC? Like a bumper or something?

I would second that motion but I think the treasure and the pres need to weigh in on that one.

I already told them I have a fire extinguisher they can have.

uzj100 · 06-03-09, 03:06 PM

I have some stickers. I will buy some raffle tickets.

krzyabncanuck · 06-03-09, 03:29 PM

Too cool. Will send some funds there way soon.

lt1fire · 06-03-09, 03:44 PM

I'm trying to get the Mods on the NC4x4 board to post this up also, they are currently deciding which part of the board will get the most hits for it.

Oh and Josh if you win this one too you need to go and buy me a lotto ticket.

lt1fire · 06-04-09, 06:20 AM

I would really like to see us as a group donate something for the truck since tellico is in our back yard.

Even if its people pitching in $20 to get a XRC winch to donate or something.

Greg what say you sir??

S4Cruiser · 06-04-09, 06:25 AM

I'd be down for throwing in 10-20 bucs if we can get something good as a group.

I'll definitely be buying some tickets too. I could use another cruiser

The XRC 8k winch is only $300 and the XRC 10k is around $400..... i've seen them on sale for cheaper though

lt1fire · 06-04-09, 06:37 AM

Actually 4 wheel parts has then with a $50 instant rebate so it is now $250 and $350 for them

I will give 10 or 20, let me know.

lt1fire · 06-04-09, 08:19 AM

I'd like Greg to weigh in on this before we make any go ahead since he is the pres

I'd say 20 a piece would be a good start

southerncruiser62 · 06-04-09, 08:39 AM

I don't see any issues, Jon how about you? My first thoughts would be lets keep this money seperate from the club money and if need be maybe we supplement the difference maybe from the club should we lack any.

lt1fire · 06-04-09, 08:49 AM

Sounds good to me Greg... how are we going to do this? Paypal or check into the ONSC account??

If you want I can get in contact with them and let them know our intentions, I also wouldn't mind driving the winch down there to drop it off and meet some of them if anyone else wants to go with me.

GarnerFJ40 · 06-04-09, 09:46 AM

I'm sure some of them will be at GSMTR....

I agree.

Let's approach this way - Al you run point (if you're ok with that) and track the following;

- How much we need to purchase the winch (sounds like you already have this)
- Listing of who and how much they want to contribute. Hopefully we can get enough funds from donations to fund the purchase.

In a week or so let's see how much money we have committed. If we're close then I think it's ok to use limited club funds to supplement (regardless I think ONSC as a club not just individuall members should contribute a portion so we can put our name on it).

Let's have a 2nd and 3rd choice of what we want to buy just in case we still need a good amount of cash for the winch.

I don't want to use the club paypal account but we can easily setup a donation paypal account for people to send funds.

Let me know what you guys think.

GarnerFJ40 · 06-04-09, 01:45 PM

Same here... if you hadn't cut a check yet Jon, deduct from it!

OB-1 · 06-04-09, 02:04 PM

I'm in for $20 as well.

lt1fire · 06-04-09, 02:33 PM

$120.... half way to the 8k winch

lt1fire · 06-04-09, 02:46 PM

Jon I just found this while looking at the 4wp store website
Buy, Sell, or Trade Truck & Jeep Parts - Swapmeet - Overstock on Truck and Jeep Parts - Clearance Items

It appears they are all having a swap meet type thing the day before the next meeting.... I could troll the charlotte one if someone wanted to do the Raleigh one and try to find something.

krzyabncanuck · 06-04-09, 03:00 PM

I'm also good for a 20 spot .

Heck got one from a customer today, so will not miss it.

Guys,

Thank you so much for your support. The Ga Cruisers decided that enough was enough when it comes to Tellico, we're tired of letting others fight the battle we all should be fighting for ourselves.

Any contributions you can make will go directly tot he FJ62 project and will definitely assist in accomplishing our goal of contributing thousands of dollars to Rescue Tellico. Even if we don't have a spot on the truck for a part we'll put it to good use by using it to raise badly needed funds for the build. Obviously New parts such as a winch will definitely be put on the Truck!!!!!!!! Thanks!

Feel free to shoot us an email with any contribution thoughts. FJ62@gacruisers.com

As the interest is exploding in this raffle we're trying to keep up with the inquiries and information. We have dedicated a page to the project and will be updating on a regular basis. We will have a shipping address for parts, another for cash donations and also a PayPal account up shortly.

http://www.gacruisers.com/

Thanks again and help support the cause.
