Can you post this on each state board so everyone with see it. I'm definitely in!
I am waiting on the "go ahead" from Ed to set up some sort of account to collect and disberse the donations.
I have recieved word from Ed that we have a "green light" to move ahead with this project. I shall contact a bank to to handle the money and foreward a bank check to St Judes when WE ask them to do so.
Now, I need input from you guys on how long we should continue our "DRIVE" for donations. Any ideas?
I'm glad we got the go ahead on this. Thanks for putting it together Driller.
I, personally, think 30days/one month is a good time for donations to come in. It gives everyone a chance to get paid in whatever way they do and contribute as they can/want. Anything shorter than that may leave someone out. If it goes much longer than that, folks may procrastinate and never get " 'roun tuit" if you know what I mean.
Just a suggestion.
Let us know when and where you get it set up.
I agree with Ancorpuller-30 days should give anyone who wants to donate time.
You know I do not know why I clicked on this link, but for some reason I did. Anyway God bless Crappie.com members. Let let me know when its ready to go and I am in. Put up another post or something that says Donation for ST. Jude.
This site has not help me learn fishing it is helped me grow spiritually.

Count me in for $100. Driller...got any deatails yet? Billy
OK Guys and Gals, We should be set up by this afternoon.
I apologise for the delay in getting this done, but have been driving 65 miles each way to visit my 90 year old mother in the hospital every day and really havent had the time to get to the bank when it was open. #1 priority today is to set this thing up and then we can ROLL with it.
THANKS for the open hearts and checkbooks !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I know the donations will be put to good use at St Judes. I will ask the bank to accept funds for 30 days and then forward the money to St Judes directly from the bank. PLEASE do not send the money to me for deposit!!!! I will post the address of the bank later today.
After meeting with the Integra Bank manager here today, here is what I have come up with.
They will be glad to accept donations for St Judes and will send them a bank check when we decide the "drive" is finisihed or on the appointed day.
Problem: Due to excessive paperwork the bank cannot furnish us with a list of NAMES of donors---only ammounts of the donations. If you wish to have your name posted on Crappie.com as being a donor, we will have to do this another way. The bank manager suggested that we appoint someone to accept checks or money orders made out payable to the bank and St Judes and record the names and ammounts of the checks before making the deposit, so they can have their names posted. I need input on this before going further. The bank offered to handle the money and cut the check for FREE! No service charges !
What do you say guys---want your name in lights or just a warm feeling in your hearts?
Next thing---Would you guys help out by posting something about this in your respective STATE threads???? Please!!! If you run across a state other than your own that does not have it posted--PLEASE do so---THANKS !....driller
