Subj: [kl] The Pledge Drive is _still_ going on ...
Date: Sun, 11 Oct 1998 02:08:05 -0400

And you thought I wasn't going to mention it again.

I didn't announce anything yesterday ... there were just too many things
to do for me to get to the pledge drive announcement, and not enough
time.

There have been only two new persons to add in the last 2 days:
An anonymous benefactor and Brent Eresman. They bring the total pledged
(which includes one person upping their pledge) to $3651.00, still short
$1349.00 of the goal. There have been 105 pledges made.

There are about 550 Klarinet members who haven't pledged anything for
the new machine; indeed, the machine will go online even without any new
pledges, just in a reduced capacity. However, if 270 of you sent in
$5.00 each (1/3 the cost of a discounted box of reeds) we'd meet our
goal and be done with it for quite a few years. Please consider even a
small donation; they _do_ add up.

For more information, check www.sneezy.org/PledgePage.html or drop me a
personal message.

Sorry to keep bothering everyone, but hopefully this will soon be over
...
