We are looking for certain items for use by our chapter and if you have something to donate we’d like to have it and also provide you with a tax-deductible receipt. We did very well last year with our fundraisers, but also had our share of expenses with the new wave we built, buying of promotional material, and other things. One of our best fundraising activities in the past has been taking pictures of people on our wave for a modest fee. We’ve used a Polaroid camera but the film alone costs about a dollar a shot. We would like to bring ourselves into the new millennium and start using a digital camera. We will either post pictures online or use a stand alone photo printer along with it. If you have a pictbridge compatible digital camera and/or printer or a tripod to donate we would love to have them.

UPDATE: We would like to thank Randy Martin of ZEM surfboards for donating a new camera tripod and DVD player. Thanks to Doug Garwood of Accord Construction and Drywall who has come through and donated a new flat screen monitor. Rather than show the VCR tape edition of the Sea to Summit video on a regular compact TV, as we’ve done in the past we can now present a crisp, digital version. One more thing we could use would be any surf movies on dvd. We have found that for some reason when we set up our information table and show surfing footage, people inexplicably are attracted. If you have any to donate we can sure use them.

Please help us make our hard earned dollars go farther by making a donation. If you can help, please contact Rick Thomsen at rickthomsen@yahoo.com.
