another big hurdle

06Oct09

early registration is officially over for the 2010 summit for someone climbs.  it kind of snuck up on me, and i didn’t make it to my $1000 goal.

…yet.

here’s where i stand now.

i am on a layaway plan.  their description is this:

“This option is best if you don’t want to put down an additional deposit. You won’t have a secure spot on a 2010 climb until you reach $1250 in funds raised, but you can also see how your fundraising is going, and you can also defer until 2011.”

so i guess if i don’t meet my next goal of $3,000, i can always put it off another year and hope a rich cougar finds me.

in the mean time, i found this site that sells personalized raffle tickets.  that site looks a little sketchy, but i’ve heard from people who have used them that they’re pretty decent tickets.  i’m thinking about selling tickets for $5 a piece with a $500 prize.

here’s a sample.

it’s gonna be a little awkward going door to door trying to sell these things, but it can’t be any more awkward than just straight up asking for cash.
