Firebird.....close enough. As I have recomended to a couple of people; you can always put a sign in your rear window that reads: "My other car is a Fiero"

To the top... I realize that the show is still a few very short months away.... But donations can be given any time between now and then...
Also, prize donations will have to be closed off soon, so that we have a "final" prize list...
So if you are donating a prize, please do so soon.
For those who have donated specific prizes that are not a "Winner's choice" type item, please be sure to ship those to me so that I can get everything together, boxed and ready to ship before the show. I want to be able to ship items within a few business days of the end of the show.

I will have kits available at the show in ribbed and smooth .. so the winner of the marker kit will get them right away ...if the winner is not present nellieship will send them to him ------------------
Just saw the Photo Spread of the door prizes and saw the pictures of the Fiero Kit I donated to the cause.....so kool..... it's like making the cover of the Rolling Stone !
Now everyone, go back to the first page of this thread and buy the winning ticket. And remember, you can never have too many winning tickets.

Edited the drawing information... After a discussion with Nellie, it was decided that the drawing for prizes would be held after the show at the Shipman's home. This will eliminate any potential confusion or hard feelings with non-Fiero participants at the show.

How many registered members does PFF have.....20,000 or so and only 27 have donated ? So far Synthesis has picked up cash gifts ranging from $5.00 to $250.00. The easy reaction is to think "my little gift won't mean anything". YOU ARE WRONG. I think the PFF members should look at this from a different perspective. All of the gifts have been nice and neat multipliers of 5. Instead of trying to "beat" someone, try filling in the blanks.....starting with $1.00. So if you have an extra $3.00 send it in! If you have $7.00 change after picking up your $3.00 Starbucks, donate it to Tylers cause. If you're lucky enough to get a nice check from the Federal Government the send in an amount equal to your lucky number(s). Think about it; with all these odd numbers to keep track of, Synthesis will have to use all his fingers and toes to count it all. Make it easy for you and a real challenge for Synthesis. Heck, if you have a 1984 Fiero donate the year of your car: $1.98, $19.84, $198.40. How about your wife's age? How about your ex-wife's age? You get the idea. Have some fun with helping.

Everyone with a PayPal account: There are 94 day left until the official start of the Tyler show. A perfect day to send your donation of $9.40. Directions are on page one. Or you could be really generous and round that up to an even $22.22 and get a couple of those door prize tickets you've heard so much about. Sure you can, you can do this. Don't you owe it to yourself?

Every donation counts; and especially today. Did you realize it is very bad luck NOT to donate on Friday the 13th? That next, inconvenient, break down, that is in YOUR future, CAN be avoided with your donation. It's not too late. Go on, make it an odd amount, make it now, avoid those future problems and feel good about it.

The Rapture is predicted to arrive this weekend and end life as we know it. Many of us maybe going where there are no Fieros. Now is a good time to donate to the cause before it's too late. Who knows: you may not be able to take it with you but if you give enough you may be able to take your car. Don't take any chances.

Back to the top, where this belongs. Memorial Day 2011; make a donation to celebrate and support those who choose to serve this country. Make a donation to the memory of those who did not return. Make a donation to help make a difference in some kid's life.

I have been keeping track of donations in my Excel spreadsheet, but have not updated the first post in a while. I plan to remedy that very soon. We have only added about another 100 bucks to the total.
Today, I began the long arduous task of printing out all of the names of the entrants on Avery business cards. Each entrant gets a number of cards equal to their donations. AKA, 100 bucks gets you 10 cards.
I will also have several blanks with me at the show for people who want to enter there.
The cards are double side printed. One side has the PFF name (if applicable) and their real name, while the other side has the Fiero Pegasus on it. They look fantastic.

Yep I'm sure you won. There are many very cool door prizes that have been donated to the cause and have raised a dollar or two for the Shipman Scholarship fund. You have won, and I don't think I'm letting the cat out of the bag, "The Hulki Aldikacti Mr. Congeniality Award" for this year! Congratulations. However, if you would like to change this award to something more useful, might I suggest buying more tickets. I have it on good authority that the judges this year can be bribed with additional donations to a good cause ! I would like to encourage all forum members to help Revin out and buy lots of ticket in his name. So pay it forward; you'll be helping out a fellow member and a really good cause.
