Win a Sterling Rope...Seriously

[bentley]

There was an open meeting at Torrent Falls this weekend to discuss
Rocktoberfest and many other pressing issues that the RRGCC faces on a
daily basis.

The BOD and other participants discussed how the economic downturn
has impacted the climbing industry and community. We expect that this
trend may continue for 2010. So again we must turn to you for
support to make our fundraising goals. We know that you are willing
to help. Climbers frequently ask what they can do to remind everyone to
donate, as represented by Mike Anderson's comment at the meeting:
"It's a privilege to climb here and I think everyone needs to pay."
Check this out, you can donate at little as $7 a month to the RRGCC on
a monthly basis. It is set up on auto draft so you don't even have to think about it!

The RRGCC is a 501 (c)(3) non-profit organization. That means a lot of
legal stuff that I don't understand. However, I do know that money that I
donate to the RRGCC is money that I get to deduct that from my taxes!
Here is the most important part: we are $12,000 short on the PMRP
payment for next year. Yes, Rocktoberfest was an amazing event. But we
experienced some additional expenses this year and dollars are tight with the economy in the condition it is in.

Here is the best part! You have the opportunity to deduct dollars from
your taxes, help the RRGCC, and enter to win a brand new Sterling rope!
If you go to http://rrgcc.org/support-us/membership/ and register
yourself to donate $7 or more per month for a year between now and February 15th, you will be entered to win a Sterling rope that we will mail to your house!

So seriously, go to http://rrgcc.org/support-us/membership/ right now
and sign up! We will be posting the names of those who have signed up -
make sure your name is on the list!

Can we do an year equivalent lump sum donation and still qualify? For some reason I am against the auto monthly donation

Werd pawilkes, I already got enough monthly payments and don't want another. If the answer is yes then I guess $84 or more equals IN, right?

Here's an idea: I'll bet a lot of us have some climbing partners that go to the Red frequently but have never managed to join the coalition, if it was easy to buy them a one year membership for the coalition as a holiday gift hopefully down the line they would continue to pay for their membership.
one of my partners is big into hunting and thinks nothing of paying for his yearly NRA membership and realizes that he should join the RRGCC but never has

I prefer a year or half year donation to the RRGCC too Bentley.

Put that/those options up and make it/them more expensive.

[Josephine]

$84 minimum lum-sum donation also qualifies.

Hmm, the "general donation in the amount of" does not seem to be working properly. I've tried several times, and the "monthly donation" seems to work so I think my computer is good.

Basically when I left click in an info box the "blinky" cursor mark doesn't stay on in any of the categories. That means I can't type in any info. If I tab to the different info boxes then I get to type in one bit of info (such as the first digit of my credit card number) but then no more.

Somebody in the know might wanna check it out.

What browser are you using? FF3 and IE7 just worked fine for me -- I was able to update the amount and proceed to checkout.

[Brentucky]

I'm using IE?. I'm just a simple man, I don't know how to find out what browser I'm using. Don't worry I'll just try it from another computer sometime. Thanks for checking though.
