Official Fundraising Total

Our "official" profit for the Oakbrook Fundraiser is $201. I received the items and invoice about an hour and a half ago. By the end of the day, all order should be with thier sellers. The sellers are encouraged to deliver the items as soon as possible.

I would like to thank everyone that helped to make this fundraiser a success! I sincerely appreciate all of your hard work.

Thanks,
Rob Ruddle

Next Years Theme Tent Decorating & Fundraising

The 2009 Relay for Life theme will be Disney. The theme was voted on and announced at the wrap-up meeting tonight. Also, I regret to inform you that Jason's Journey did not receive any awards for tent decorating this year. On a good note, we raised about $200 with the Oakbrook fundraising project. Don't hold me to that amount until I get the "official" results tomorrow from Oakbrook. I think this was the easiest project we have done and I think we should consider doing it again later in the year. We sold at least 65 items this time. Maybe if we get a few more people selling next time and extend the due date a little bit we can move up on the profit scale. If you are interested in seeing the profit scale I included it on a previous post. Looking at the profit scale, I think this particular fundraiser has the potential to make a lot of money for our team. I have some ideas on
how to increase our numbers but I will have to go over them at a later time after I have all of my thoughts organized.
