  2. In and effort to reduce the spam on the site, several years ago I had went to a program where I manually approve each and every new registration. This approval gives you full access to the site, to pictures, and to post, among other things. To be able to enjoy the full potential of the board for you, you need to be fully registered.. and that's easy.. Just send an email to me at jim@trishieldperformance.com and I will verify your registration. This policy will remain in effect indefinitely, as it has completely eliminated the bad actors from our site, who would spam and hack it, once they gained access. Thanks JW

Anyone want to help the Cub Scouts?

Discussion in 'The Bench' started by jimmy, Nov 15, 2003.

    I started this by ranting at the "Frustrated and venting here" thread. If anyone is interested in helping out our Cub Scout Pack 25 of Farmville NC then they can make a "donation" to purchase some $2 raffle tickets. The winner gets $300, 2nd is $100 and 3rd is $50. But the most important part is we are helping these boys.

    The deal is we are having a Turkey Shoot and a raffle to raise funds to help these boys (and parents). It takes approximately $45 per boy per year, so they get free handbooks, pay no monthly dues and the parents are not having to dish out money every time there is a campout or their son earns an award or patch.

    I have paypal set up at gsjimmy@greenvillenc.com or you can mail it to: Jimmy Cleveland
    2493 Beaver Creek Rd.
    Greenville NC 27834
    Make checks payable to: Pack 25, East Carolina Council.

    I just need your name, city and state, and e-mail address.

    Others that have helped me so far have said they would do a split with 1/2 the winings going to v8buick.com and I plan on doing the same with the tickets that I have purchased.

    If you have any question please e-mail or pm me.

    We helped out at the Turkey Shoot the last two nights and it looks like we have made $1000 so far.

    Thanks in advance for your help!

    Ok, I live in a big city, what's a Turkey Shoot exactly? Y'all stand around blasting Turkeys with semi-auto's or something?

    Actually you use a 12 gauge, 20 gauge or 410 shot gun to shoot at a paper target 90 feet away, and the closet to the center wins.
    A Turkey Shoot is $3 and the winner gets a voucher to go to the local grocery store to purchase his turkey, BUT this year we are giving out a $10 gift card to Food Lion. There is also a $4 HAM shoot for a $20 gift card and a $5 shoot for a money round. There are 10 people who take turns shooting at there target and the winner of the money round gets $25 or 1/2 the total money taken in for that round.

    If 10 people pay $3 that is $30 total. the winner gets $10 and he is given the shot gun shell when it is his turn to shoot. So out of the $30 the Scouts earn about $12 per round.

    The Cubmaster told us today that we have made $1000 this weekend. So if next weekend goes like this one then we will make $2K and then about $1K off of the raffle(we hope).

    This is Redneck country so it would make more sense to just shoot your own turkey and take it home!
