Naina21 Posted July 27, 2012 Posted July 27, 2012 OK glad it isn't just me. I finally got to one by going to their home page, searching for Disaster Transport, and clicking on the person from there.
timberskara Posted July 27, 2012 Author Posted July 27, 2012 The site is again live. I just sent out an email to all participants, but we are bumping the cut-off for donations to 2 p.m. EST. Thanks for all of your efforts and I look forward to seeing some of you on Sunday!
tb81 Posted July 27, 2012 Posted July 27, 2012 Barely hanging on to a spot in the Top 10! Hoping to at least hit my goal of $300! https://www.firstgiving.com/fundraiser/toddbills/finaldispatch - Todd
Defcon62 Posted July 27, 2012 Posted July 27, 2012 Donations exploded last night! Event is now over $7K in various donations. Team TPR is in the lead for donations but we're getting killed in the race for the top three. I'd love to just stay in the top 10 at this point. Thank you to everyone who donated so far!
Naina21 Posted July 27, 2012 Posted July 27, 2012 Donations are at almost $9K now, with no one from TPR in the top 3. We are just barely holding on as the top team (about $500 between us and the next team). I'm barely holding on to #20. If anyone can help keep me in the top 20, it would be appreciated. http://www.firstgiving.com/fundraiser/stacygretchenTPR/finaldispatch Stacy
Defcon62 Posted July 27, 2012 Posted July 27, 2012 HOLY CRAP did anyone just see that! Jason Hammond just plopped down $5K!!!!!!!!!!!
kidcoaster 2 Posted July 27, 2012 Posted July 27, 2012 ^ That was a typo when he put it in. Im gonna try and make a running for the top spot and any little bit that someone donates will help be a kick start for it! https://www.firstgiving.com/fundraiser/kenjones7/finaldispatch
Defcon62 Posted July 27, 2012 Posted July 27, 2012 I bet that guy's credit card just had a heart attack either way.
tb81 Posted July 27, 2012 Posted July 27, 2012 Are you kidding? I about had a heart attack when I saw that....and it wasn't even mine! If it were legit, that would have been amazing for the event! I'm still chugging along, sending out messages to everyone I can think of to donate! Coming down the home stretch guys, go Team TPR!!! - Todd
Defcon62 Posted July 27, 2012 Posted July 27, 2012 Good Luck Todd!, you got some stiff competition in the last few hours, I'm saving for the deadline trying to stay in the top 10 to be on the last ride.
Naina21 Posted July 27, 2012 Posted July 27, 2012 If I didn't need at least $100 to cover the trip, I could help someone out more.
dlawson24 Posted July 27, 2012 Posted July 27, 2012 I feel that. If it didn't cost so much to get there and eat I would donate more money also. Or buy a fast lane pass. lol. no I would probably donate money first.
Defcon62 Posted July 27, 2012 Posted July 27, 2012 Last few minutes! Ken your close to making the top 3! Anyone who donates to ken and gets him into the top 3 will also get prizes from me! https://www.firstgiving.com/fundraiser/kenjones7/finaldispatch www.firstgiving.com/fundraiser/joseph-cappellojr/finaldispatch
tb81 Posted July 27, 2012 Posted July 27, 2012 I just donated $10 to Ken! Would love to see him make it in the top 3!! - Todd

Ill even throw in some extra gifts!
Defcon62 Posted July 27, 2012 Posted July 27, 2012 Well that was a good run!, Ken that was very generous of you, I wish I had the resources to do that. I finished 11th. Team total is $2079 great job everyone!
Defcon62 Posted July 27, 2012 Posted July 27, 2012 (edited) I bet that Ben G. guy is mad as hell! ETA Or is he if that last donation counts? Edited July 27, 2012 by Defcon62

tb81 Posted July 27, 2012 Posted July 27, 2012 ^ Are you sure you are going to be 11th? Jason didn't have a $5,000 donation, only $50...which would take him down and you'd still be in the top 10. Agreed though, what a great run and congrats to the team! Looking forward to Sunday! - Todd
Defcon62 Posted July 27, 2012 Posted July 27, 2012 Whoa, I completely forgot about that! *Charlie Sheen voice* WINNING!
kidcoaster 2 Posted July 28, 2012 Posted July 28, 2012 Just want to say THANK YOU to everyone who joined Team TPR, all together we raised $2,104 (Someone must have donated after 2) for Give Kids the World! Also a huge Thank You to everyone who donated even if it wasn't to Team TPR and to someone else still thank you! Now that the fund raising is over I'm looking forward to meeting everyone sunday. If you see me please say hi and I will be bringing some gifts to give you guys (And gals) from my personal collection.
Naina21 Posted July 28, 2012 Posted July 28, 2012 We need to all meet up and have a group photo taken after we get our shirts.
kidcoaster 2 Posted July 28, 2012 Posted July 28, 2012 We need to all meet up and have a group photo taken after we get our shirts. I was just thinking that! We need to set up a meeting point/time.
dlawson24 Posted July 28, 2012 Posted July 28, 2012 Has anyone else got their email from Cedar Point about what to do when we get there tomorrow? I'm not sure if they have not been sent out or if I didn't get one for some reason. Also. perhaps a few minuets before the reception if you want a picture. Right in front of Disaster Transport!
Naina21 Posted July 28, 2012 Posted July 28, 2012 No email yet. That is what I was thinking. Try to meet up at DT entrance about 15 minutes before things start. Take a few photos. Sounds good to everyone?
