In an effort to encourage interaction and camaraderie between Active 20-30 Clubs from different areas, members often “steal” objects from neighboring clubs. In our case, the Redding Club’s banner was stolen on our charter night. However, as a practical joke, when the offending club returned the banner, it was encased in a block of reinforced concrete.
The Redding Club is now using this prank as an opportunity to raise money for future projects that will help the special needs children in our community (please see the link to our RFP and info sheet showing past Club activities http://www.active20-30.com/files/ReddingBannerBidPkg.pdf ). We are looking for a contractor willing to donate money to our cause and extract our banner from the concrete in which it is encased. As the contractor who “bids” the most, you will be rewarded with two tickets to the Active 20-30 Club of Redding’s Past Active Bash and Officer Installment on June 13, 2009 at Win-River Casino’s Eagle Room. Your generous donation with be celebrated at this event with a video presentation of the banner extraction, a plaque commemorating the extraction, and a tri-tip dinner. All contributions made from the banner extraction are tax deductible and all proceeds will go to the Active 20-30 Club of Redding for use in future projects benefiting local children.
The Active 20-30 Club of Redding would like to thank you in advance for any contribution that you can make to this great cause. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact Ian Stripling, at 221-1792 Ext. 119.
Sincerely,
