imawesome1124 Posted March 23, 2012 Posted March 23, 2012 This was a possibility for me until I saw that you needed an additional $75 dollars. So, unfortunately, we can't afford this event.
Yellow Jacket Posted March 23, 2012 Posted March 23, 2012 My GF and I had a question. What if you don't end up making the $75 minimum donation amount? Do you lose all that money and can't end up going or what? My guess is that if you are coming down to the deadline and need a few more dollars, and you post about it here, that it won't be a problem.
robbalvey Posted March 23, 2012 Author Posted March 23, 2012 Ok, here's what I'm going to do! I have another FIVE of these awesome gift packs to give away! The first 5 people to post that they have donated at least $5 to 5 of our riders (see the first post in the thread for the URLs), I'll send you one of these awesome gift packs! It's only a total of $25 of donations! If you donate more...I'll include BONUS STUFF!!!! Thank you everyone for helping out for this amazing cause!
thrillgeek Posted March 23, 2012 Posted March 23, 2012 My GF and I had a question. What if you don't end up making the $75 minimum donation amount? Do you lose all that money and can't end up going or what? My guess is that if you are coming down to the deadline and need a few more dollars, and you post about it here, that it won't be a problem. That's kind of what I was thinking. You guys are an awesome group of people!
moinab Posted March 23, 2012 Posted March 23, 2012 ^Or you can kick in a few extra bucks, yourself! You're getting a day at the park, plus food, and it's for a great cause!
thrillgeek Posted March 23, 2012 Posted March 23, 2012 Correct - if you want to bring someone with you, they also need to register a page, make the initial $25 donation, and commit to brining in another $75 worth of donations. I would encourage you to recruit as many friends and families to do it as raising the additional $75 shouldn't be too difficult! --Robb I'm a little confused. When you go to register it gives you quantity amount for who else is going with you. So can I sign myself and my GF up on one registration page and pay the $50? Is that how it would work or would she have to register separate?
robbalvey Posted March 23, 2012 Author Posted March 23, 2012 ^ Honestly, I'm not sure. But let me find out....
PhillyKid Posted March 23, 2012 Posted March 23, 2012 This really sounds fun so I'm going to do this too. www.firstgiving.com/fundraiser/cameronlightsey/DorneyPark
robbalvey Posted March 23, 2012 Author Posted March 23, 2012 Just donated $5 to 5 random TPR members! Awesome! And I have just added $10 to your page. Please email me your contact information and shirt size to robbalvey@themeparkreview.com and put "GKTW Awesome stuff" in the subject line.
Musician Posted March 23, 2012 Posted March 23, 2012 another member of Team TPR at Knott's https://www.firstgiving.com/fundraiser/brucebivens/KnottsBerryFarm
robbalvey Posted March 23, 2012 Author Posted March 23, 2012 Awesome! We don't have anyone from Valleyfair signed up yet! Let's fix that soon, TPR! --Robb
placroix Posted March 23, 2012 Posted March 23, 2012 Longtime member, first time poster. I've signed up for Kings Dominion's TPR team along with my brother Joe. We're both looking forward to having a great time for a fantastic cause. Here are our FirstGiving usernames: phillacroix joelacroix See everyone on June 10! -Phil
Chris Benvenuto Posted March 23, 2012 Posted March 23, 2012 Just donated $5 to 5 random TPR members! Awesome! And I have just added $10 to your page. I think I was supposed to get 10 from TPR as well for donating 10 to another member. I didn't - just pointing it out.
robbalvey Posted March 23, 2012 Author Posted March 23, 2012 ^ Sorry for the confusion. I matched your donation on Chuck's page. As you can see you donated $10 and then I donated another $10: http://www.firstgiving.com/fundraiser/chuckcampbell/KingsDominion Let's do this one more time! Same rules apply. Show me that you just donated $10 and I'll send you a WCB T-Shirt and I'll match the donation! Don't worry, I'm sure there will be more opportunities to have us help you out!
chadster Posted March 23, 2012 Posted March 23, 2012 Thanks to everyone who have donated so far! I'm coming up with a special edition of my vacation adventures that will be tied to donations, details to be announced soon!
ILoveRides Posted March 23, 2012 Posted March 23, 2012 (edited) I'm in for Knott's! I'm pretty sure I can convince a few others to join the event too! I'm looking forward to spending the day with other TPR members. https://www.firstgiving.com/fundraiser/DavidWavid/KnottsBerryFarm Edited March 23, 2012 by robbalvey
ILoveRides Posted March 23, 2012 Posted March 23, 2012 (edited) By the way, I just spoke with Gertrude, and she totally wants to help out! If you donate $5 on my page, and then either PM me or post about it here to let me know - Gertrude will personally thank you. https://www.firstgiving.com/fundraiser/DavidWavid/KnottsBerryFarm DO IT!

timberskara Posted March 23, 2012 Posted March 23, 2012 I'm a little confused. When you go to register it gives you quantity amount for who else is going with you. So can I sign myself and my GF up on one registration page and pay the $50? Is that how it would work or would she have to register separate? It is a bit confusing. You can go ahead and put quantity 2 and register you both that way. FirstGiving will then send the person you registered a link to start fundraising, while you would create your own link during the registration process. Each person would need to have their own fundraising page (and each meet the $75 minimum) to participate. A huge thanks to everyone for their interest in this event!
bubala Posted March 23, 2012 Posted March 23, 2012 I just donated $10 each to 5 random peeps! Have fun everyone!!!! And, good luck! -Jason
robbalvey Posted March 23, 2012 Author Posted March 23, 2012 ^ Awesome! And I have just added $10 to your page. Please email me your contact information and shirt size to robbalvey@themeparkreview.com and put "GKTW Awesome stuff" in the subject line.
OzCatter Posted March 23, 2012 Posted March 23, 2012 Gonna do this for WOF but getting my own team together. Looks like a great time to raise some money for kids, let's do this.
