Also...
I've been thinking about this concept a little while and would like to float an idea out there...
There's two weeks before the deadline for inclusion on the Sharks Member's jersey - I'd love to see sharksforever.com as one of the embedded names in the jersey. I'd love us to be a part of this momentus occasion.
The idea is this:
We try and raise a bit more cash in excess of the $1000 we need for the visionary plaque and see if we can buy 2 Ticketed CSSC Memberships for use by Sharks Forever to use as a gift or giveaway (on a home-game-weekly basis) to a contributor on this forum who has exemplified all that is good and true in Sharkness.
The offer would be that the winner would be offered a ticket for two to attend a home game and sit with the CSSC. If you're already a CSSC member, you could choose to offer it to a friend or whatever to come to the footy with you.
By buying 2x CSSC Memberships, it would entitle sharksforever.com to be displyed twice on the Member's jersey and also give us the opportunity of rewarding our sharksforever members with a double pass to sit with the CSSC. This would a particularly great thing if we were to offer those passes to our interstate members and to the families of some of our new recruits... I'm just hoping that the CSSC would go ouit of their way to ensure that these newbies are shown a seriously good time!
Anyway.... just a thought... anyone have any ideas?
Iron, as much as I'd love to say a "special thanks" to all the donors who have put their money where their mouth is, I am reluctant to itemise who gave what etc., I just don't see it as the ethically right thing to do and could be seen as a bit divisive of the fans.
I will say however, that we have received donations from 20 different members, ranging in value individually form $5 to $150.
All of these donations are greatly appreciated regardless of their size.
Cheers & thanks!
