If anyone else wants to do this, let's pick a time and place to meet, so I don't have to drive all over the city for payments. PV to Edmonton and back is 8 hours driving depending on where in the city I have to go, can't afford a hotel room.

I guess we better find a meeting place, Leahy which end of the City are you? And, lol, where is the Stollery?

Some of you guys may have to drive across town, but please bear in mind I am in the truck all day.

Anyone meeting me please print and fill out this form if you want to use the donation at tax time. It is the only way you will get a receipt.

I consider myself lucky that I have never been to the stollery, and I would like my first trip there to be with the people from this forum, everyone on here has done some spectacular work.
I would like to donate $100 to help get the total up.

Everyone here should be proud of themselves.

Without any doubt, there will be good members who would give you a place to crash for a night.
This way you can have a great get together and a small celebration for such a great fundraiser.

Everyone who participated should be so proud of themselves for their generosity.

Count me in on this one please. I shat the bed and didn't get my MO in the mail yet.

Wherever you guys meet up I'll be there

Ok, I will be in Edmonton Friday, barring anything earth or porcelin shattering.

There are a lot of cheques still to come, PLEASE use the form if you have not yet sent it in, or let's meet in the city. I can not meet everyone in a different place, not enough hours in the day.

We still have to get in some dentist visits, arrange a tee time, and sell some more life jacket rentals, all wonderful gifts and offerings.

Again, if you have PIF's unclaimed, see this message and want them to go to a new home, please quote your own offering, this thread ends tomorrow.

I just totalled all the donations, and $4090 is here as of right now.

I know there is still money coming for the golf, and a couple that were just made yesterday, but still lots to come in.

Also- and please do not hit me too hard, this has been a difficult thing to track, no excuses I screwed up.

I deleted over a thousand PM's in the last month, and a couple were the names that I had asked for before, please PM me, I am doing up the pages as required for the donations today.

I need info including name, forum name, address, postal code, phone #, etc for;
Funds admin service, id industrial, LP, TT

Sorry again, if you saw the piles of paper, envelopes, cheques, forms, notes on my desk you would still slap me, but hopefully understand.

Shmag your $100 got here today, thanks so much!

That puts us at $4190.00 here today.

My kids have decided they want to donate too, so I am adding another $50 in their names.

Total updated.

I have the first 3 seasons of the Sopranos TV show on DVD.

These are the HBO box sets. They all work last time I watched them. I'm at work so I don't have a picture, but they would be the same as what's on Chapters.ca or Amazon or whatever.


Cheers,

Sent a PM to the recipients too.

Sounds like a new auction!

Let's see how much the members will pay NOT to see the pictures!
