Hi folks.

I can donate 2 copies of my book: 21st Century Hippies: Activists in Pursuit of Peace and Social Justice.

auction

Post by SaltSpringKiterPeaceGuy »

if anyone has any items they can donate, my class is having an auction to raise money for a year end field trip to WildPlay Element Parks in Nanaimo. Anything which could be auctioned off will do the trick nicely.

The kids would appreciate it very much.

The auction is in mid-June.

Cheers,

Kevin

2 days left to enter the draw.....

hey, interesting thing here.....I note a serious discrepancy with #of contributing/donating Kiters vs. Poleskippers, only 5 out of 20 (counting Wdoc/Sandy etc. as 1/2....well, actually they should be counted as 1/4, especially that Sandy chick :lol:

Only 2 100% kiters donated.....Anything to that? :wink: C'mon string doods, get all over THAT :!: :wink: chuckle

Agreeing with Kus, and, if you care less about the Helmet prize; (You are unlikely to spot me ever sporting a Gath) if we don't support the BWD site, then like my flatuence, it will disappear into thin air. Plus, you could always sell or donate the prize to someone who does want it!

Give in to your guilty conscious and let conviction overwhelm your spirit (yeah you!), if you use this site then Donate, and that doesn't just mean the (ahem) old guys, the more youthful folk need to do their part too.
