To all who have contributed to date, THANK YOU! It's collectively all our fund and it grows (or not) based on your support and your Base contributions. We still have a very long way to go if we are to achieve our $10.00/member goal for 2005. If you're not sure what to 'shoot' for, just add up your primary base members and multiply that times $ 10.00. That way it levels the playing field for all bases, since some are smaller than others.
