PLEASE… If you’re the CD of an event, please consider donating any left over funds from your contest event to the F3A team. I’ve already had 2 contest directors contact me with donations of money from their contests which is great. </div><div><br></div><div>I’d also encourage you to run 50/50 raffles at contests for the team fund.</div><div><br></div><div>All donations can be made out to “F3A Team Fund” and send to our NSRCA Treasurer John Gayer (contact either of us off list for his address). </div><div><br></div><div>I have not put together a budget for this yet, but I fear that while our travel costs will be greatly reduced compared to Africa, our in country expenses are going to be very high (the entire country is priced like a resort!). As always, we’re going to need all the help we can get.</div><div><br></div><div>Thanks!!!</div><div><br></div><div>-Mark<br><div>
