Fundraising update: the dog days of September

Two days ago, the fundraising news was good, very good–we hit the server goal, and I was thrilled that we were turning the page toward September’s BIG LIFT on a positive note.

Then we raised $50 over the course of two days, which isn’t great when, by the end of training camp, I need to raise about $2,500.

Keeping in mind that the last two days have been very quiet (unless signing Carter Rowney is “big news” to you), we’re hitting the re-set button with an earnest plea:

Put bluntly, the folks who give $100 or $200 have already given to the cause. From here on out, it’s those $25 donations that pave the road to Traverse City–hell, it’s the $5 and $10 donations that help pave the road, too…

So, if you’ve got what is equivalent to “extra change” in 2021, and you’re willing to lend a hand to send up a representative set of eyeballs to the prospect tournament and training camp, things start in two weeks.

I can’t do any of the pre-trip things I have to do, never mind drive up to Traverse City with a backseat full of groceries and a trunk full of dry cleaning, without you.

Let’s get ‘er done.
