Mike Holt,
Picnic?
Auto Cross?
Poker Run?

Are you talking about the last year's Fling or Fling in general.
I don't remember some or any of those activities being part of the 1st, or 2nd. Fling. I belive they had an Auto Cross during the last Fling.

The input (WHICH WILL GET IGNORED ANYWAY) is about improving the Fling and making it inclusive. It is NOT about doing a critique of last year's Fling.


Here is a solution. Send me all the money you want to donate to CF between now and the Fling. Checks made payable DIRECTLY TO CF. Not to Turk, Not to Spring Fling or anyone else. I will forward all the money 100% of it, plus my own donation to CF.

We will get THAT out of the way, and that way the organizers can concentrate on fun things like Picnic, and Poker Runs or Card games ,drinking, driving, burnouts etc. Less work for them, and less pressure on everyone attending.

Let's get the fund raising out of the way, and make Fling what it is supposed to be and what it used to be.
How about that idea?

I bet it gets nixed within the next three or four posts.

Then the question is WHY?

I am sick and tired of questions pertaining to funds raised, expenses incurred, amount donated, amount spent etc. etc.
Screw the raffle, screw the donations at the Fling.

When I go to Disneyland, I am not thinking about Red Cross or The orphans. That is stuff I am supposed to do when I get back or before I leave.
What the hell is wrong with individual donations totalling $30,000 over a collective donation of $2000.00
Do we need the recognition for the Cobra Community so much so that we want to leave a ton of money on the table and put all the burden on one person or one family?

Let's go have fun!!
