We need a "Prize Getter"

[mbroberg]

For years Andrew has done an absolutely phenomenal job acquiring prizes from vendors for the Birthday Bash. He just let Jeff and I know that due to a new teaching position and some upcoming course work he will not be able to devote sufficient time to acquiring prizes this year. We need someone to step up and take over.

Andrew said he will assist when possible and provide some material such as a list of vendors and some sample emails.

So...............do we have any takers? Any suggestions as to who to reach out to?

If there is not something else you would rather I do, I can do this.
I have done the same for a couple of other organizations I belong to.

Thank you Bob! You are the man! Having someone like you, who can make prizes appear out of thin air, who can turn a pocket knife into a lathe with just a wave of his wand (ummmmmmmmmmm let me rephrase that) by uttering "Abracadabra" (that sounds better) will really help out. I'll get you and Andrew in touch and you can work some prize magic for this year's Bash!

Thanks!!!

Bob - did we get your arm sufficiently twisted? If so, have you been able to chat with Andrew to get his list of usual prize sources?

Let me know how I can help.

Jeff,

Bob has agreed to take care of this and he has been in contact with Andrew.

Jeff
He has sent me a couple of things and pointed me to more online.
The last month or so has been crazy with health issues, but I think I'm getting better now, and will be getting to it real soon.

Let me know if you need anything else, Bob! I sent it to you a while ago, so I don't recall what I sent - if you need anything else, please let me know!


Thank you very much for helping!

Any luck so far, Bob? I usually make a thread where I list all the prizes as they come in, so they don't get lost.
