RLC FUND DONATIONS

Friends, Reps, Riders of the LC... We all have big plans for our future... but as we have been made more than aware of, any plans require a "budget". That's what those who offer to help us always ask: "What is your budget?"
Up to now the reply has always had to be "We have none. We are a free club without dues, and we hope to stay that way." - To which they reply (if they reply at all): "Sorry. We can't help you."
... and we understand that attitude. Any project undertaken will have some cost involed. Those offering goods and services must pay their rent, labour equipment, raw materials... It sounds like an economics textbook, but it's also based on the reality of their situation.

Although we're very international, the RLC is not a very big club (yet)... but with new Reps flooding in all the time... and the number of our "friends"* growing all the time, we find ourselves in the same position as many other growing clubs. The lack of time and money are slowing our growth. - We want a big club/organisation for our Reps, owners and friends... but this will not happen with our current setup. We have to look to the future. Hence I am asking for DONATIONS to the RLC DEVELOPMENT FUND. This will be added to the already existing RLC Fund.

No donation is too small or too big.
Anything & everything you offer will be accepted with thanks.

All donations will be added to the "RLC Fund" (set up at Paypal over 2 years ago... and just so you know, we currently have $5 in our fund (27.11.2004). Examples of what the fund has paid for in the past: It payed for our domain "www.1500rlc.org" - and had $74 before contributing $10 to TattooJim's funeral fund, to help his family out in times of trouble. You see? Something small can go a long way when everyone chips in. The rest went towards paying for the database, which unfortunately has proven to be somewhat useless (outages, server proble,ms, etc.).

"RLC AND FRIENDS" SETTLES AT YAHOO GROUPS

UPDATE: Numerous problems with the database system that we had set up means we have had to abandon that idea... HOWEVER the number of people signing up at the RLC Yahoo group indicates that people are happy with the service they are providing. It is therefore decided that Yahoo will be used to organise and register RLC Reps. It's great to know there is a team of experts behind maintaining the groups at Yahoo, and we hope to enjoy using their service. - I hope this meets with you rapproval. See you there!
