| Dear PA, OH and WV Eagles, Right now, I have 40 seats on the bus firmly sold. That leaves me with 16 empty seats at this moment. I priced the bus fare of $45.00 to be as inexpensive as possible (breakfast included), so as many people as possible could afford to go. My challenge: With 16 unsold seats, I am going to be $720.00 short to pay Anderson Coach and Travel in full (Total $2404.00 for the 56 passenger bus). My final payment (being made by V V A 862) will be due in a few days. I need help to raise the remaining funds so that we can all go to Washington DC on September 15th-----I just can't personally pay the extra $720 all by myself. One way or another, we are going, come hell or high water! While I am still actively trying to sell the additional seats myself, here are other possibilities that you could help with: 1. Talk to your friends and acquaintances and invite them to come with you...$45.00 is a cheap trip to Washinfton DC and will be exciting and historic! Plus, we'll have a blast! 2. Any of you Eagles that are not able to go this time might consider donating (1) $45.00 seat to someone who can't afford to go----this would be a great way to still participate! (My husband, Chuck is donating 2 free seats...$90.00...to get this ball rolling!) 3. Each of us that are going could volunteer to pay an extra $18.00 each to make up the balance due (if I sell more or all seats--I will refund your $18.00). 4. If you know someone who is rich and patriotic, ask them to cut V V A 862 a check for $720.00...I'll check to see if we could get them a non-for-profit tax donation receipt. 5. If you know the Indiana Power Ball Winner, please ask them to send V V A 862 a check for the balance of what we owe. 6. I'll entertain any other suggestions that you can come up with--please contact me with any ideas! ***Any money to help offset our shortfall can be sent to: Vietnam Veterans Of America Beaver County Chapter 862 260 Brooks Drive Beaver Falls, Pa. 15010 Make checks to V V A 862 One exciting update: In our company on Sept. 15th, we will have a number of patriotic riders from The War Dogs Motorcycle Club riding along with our bus on their motorcycles to Washington DC. We will likely have a few on our bus, as well. Welcome War Dogs! Things are really picking up for the September 15th showdown with the "moonbats". More and more Veteran and patriotic groups are endorsing Eagles Landing/GOE III daily. Press conferences and radio interviews are increasing as well. I will let you know when Larry Richert of Pittsburgh's KDKA AM Radio Show will be interviewing my Father, Col. Harry G. Riley (USA, Ret) on the Sept. 15th event. If anyone is interested in an "Eagles Up" Tee shirt, you can order one at the Eagles Up online store at this link: http://www.printfection.com/eaglesup/ (I have no financial interest). OK everyone, it's time to get fired up to STAND for OUR TROOPS and VETERANS! May God Bless America and Eagles, everywhere! Eagles Up, Kathie Marino, RN ckhdm4@yahoo.com |
