Cabin Fundraiser (Important!)

Hi, all!

As many of you know, Faire Play is comprised of a group of players who have invested their time and money to create a permanent site for our game. Hopefully, all of you have witnessed the transformation of our site. Last year we completed several capital projects, including:

• Three new player cabins
• Landscaping to fix the drainage problem
• New staircase and deck for the tavern
• Repairing the roof so there are no more leaks
• Bunk beds in the Common Room
• Private rooms for lodging in the tavern
• Cleaned out the dungeon / mod area
• Privacy fencing
• New props room

We spent a considerable amount of money on these projects and as a result we have limited funds for capital improvements for 2009.

We would like to purchase a large 12-15 person cabin to be ready for HQ's season opener in April, 2009, but we need your help. If you would like to donate specifically to this project, please go to:

http://www.alliancelarp.com/pay.php

and click on the button at the bottom of the page that says: "Donate for Cabin Fund."

We need to raise $5,000 for this project, so every donation, no matter how small, would be a great help and would be hugely appreciated. All money donated for this specific fundraiser will be used *only* on this project.

Please remember that your donations go directly to improve the site which in turn benefits our game. If you have any questions or would like more information, please feel free to contact me.

Help us make the site, and the game, better!

Thank you!

this is awesome, but i have a few questions.

1) do we have an idea of a deadline for when we know it will be too late to get the cabin ordered and in before april's event? (i like deadlines)
2) i plan to donate regardless, but i was just wondering if this is just like any other donation where you get gobbies for it.

thanks Eric!

1. I'm not sure, maybe Eric will know, but we'll post as soon as we can about that.
2. Yes!

I will also keep a running tab here for the cabin fund so people can see how well we are doing! I'll even list the name of donors unless you specifically say not to.
 
that would be great. if i knew the date, i could possibly budget multiple donations, or save up or something. :mrgreen:
 
We need to give the builder at least 4-6 weeks to manufacture and install the cabin. So to have the cabin ready for the first event of the season (which is April 3-5), we'd need to have raised the money by mid-February.

I honestly don't think we'll have raised the full amount by then (that's only two months away!), but we may have enough to make the deposit on the cabin which would get us started. I believe we need at least half of the cost (or $2,500) for the deposit.

And yes, you get Gobbies!

I appreciate your enthusiasm, Robb!
