A True Patriot Selling Goods To Pay For Trip; CAFR1 - Yamaha Roadstar Silverado 1600cc put up to help fund DC Trip‏ Travel Expenses.

ANY CHANCE OF HELPING THIS MAN OUT AS HE IS HELPING YOU?????

 Walter Burien - CAFR1.com

CAFR1 NATIONAL POST

---

The CAFR1 - Yamaha Roadstar Silverado 1600cc cruiser is being put up for sale at a discount to help fund the CAFR1 TO DC TRIP. Details and pictures of the cruiser can be seen here - http://CAFR1.com/yamaha.html Also at the bottom of the CAFR1 front page I put up a picture of the cruiser that is linked to the same page. An Internet search will show the same selling on the high end at $10,500 and the low end $4,200.  I have discounted for quick sale to $3,800 to help finance the DC trip from the proceeds of the sale. If you know someone in AZ, CA, NM, UT, or CO who would like to purchase the CAFR1 cruiser at a good price, please bring this to their attention and if they are interested have them call me. If you have not yet and just want to pitch in for the CAFR1 to DC trip then please do so. Thanks and truly yours, Walter Burien - CAFR1.com P. O. Box 2112 Saint Johns, AZ 85936 Tel. (928) 458-5854 __________________________________ PS: To get an idea of what I will be spending on the DC trip, note the following: Just to get out the door I have to put 5 of my 9 pups up in a daycare kennels with a woman for 2.5 weeks I know in Pine, AZ who takes care of dogs from her home for 2.5 weeks. Can leave 4 at my home that will not get into a fight with each other. If I left all 9, I would come back to a bloody mess and 1 or 2 less pups. Normally they charge $35 per day per dog. I can probably negotiate $15 per x 5 = $75 a day x 17 days = $1275 She would have to turn down any other dogs and just take care of my 5. I live six hours from the Phoenix Airport. Would drive my van down and leave it in long term parking $4 per day x 17 = $68 Gas back and forth from the airport in my van that gets about 12MPG is about $165. Airfare about 2 weeks in advance to DC, I can get for about $255 RT. Would get a compact Enterprise rental car for 17 days to use while in DC = $527 + insurance $102 = $629. Hotel stay cheapest I could find was $65 per day x 17 = $1105.  Miscellaneous for food, etc. at $25 per day x 17 = $425 The above is; 1275 + 68 + 165 + 255 + 629 + 1105 + 425 = $3922 (without DC tax on the DC items) What I wanted to do is hire a local DC actuary to prepare a professional actuarial projection report for TRF fund management picking out one of the local governments close to DC. Then to reproduce about 100 copies and use as an example. They are not cheap. If I squeezed and negotiated at my best, probably I could get them to charge me $3,500 (they would want to charge 10K +)  Printing of 100 reports at $4 per report = $400 So for the basics not considering unexpected / unknown: $3900 + actuary $3500 + 100 Reports $400 = $7,800 If I could, I would hire a DC  Press PR rep and try to get sponsorship for a room in the DC press club for a day reserved for a presentation to the Press (extra reports and press releases printed) I was hoping to raise a total of 10K for the trip.  I put out the word out again on 02/14/13 to the CAFR1 National email group for funding, leaving the CAFR1 year end close extended from 02/14/13 to 02/20/13 as noted on the second article on the page and on the CAFR1 DNT page per the DC trip and in the last 48 hours $830 came in from six people. _________________________________________

Some People Really Earn Their Benefits

No one has been able to explain to me why young men and women

serve in the Canadian , U.S.,

Australian or British Military for 20 years, risking their lives protecting freedom, and only get

50% of their pay on retirement. While Politicians hold their political positions

in the safe confines

of the capital, protected by these same men and women, and receive full-pay retirement after

serving one term. It just does not make any sense.

  Well the results are in for YOUR first fund raising event of 2012. I'd like to take a moment to thank all the core people involved in this effort, especially Randy and Karen Crafts. Without the over and above effort of this fine family YOUR event would have been impossible. Randy and Karen gave us permission to use part of the parking lot at the Big Dipper as well as donating part of the profits from selling 2yd loads of organic loam (remember it's that time of year so give him a call or me for that matter and get a head start on your yard or garden this year) then, rallied his family to assist, he called John up at the car lot and he brought up a dozen red white & blue balloons and John senior brought down items for the sale.

       The next group of citizen volunteers is a rather small group compared to the 1700 + registered republicans in town.They were the boots on the ground, the members who cleared out there basements and set up every morning and took it down every night. I thank you with all my heart and as requested these people shall remain nameless, I will leave it up to our membership to become involved and as you do you will have no problem identifying these great Americans,  the citizens of Lisbon Falls Maine !

 

        Finally and most importantly the people who made the extra effort to take time out of there busy schedules to come by and leave some donations or make maybe a small purchase or leave us a cash donation. Thank You all and I encourage to become more involved.

 

        There were some great moments and a lot of hard work done over the past three days and I will be posting some stories and pictures on YOUR website as soon as I recover (whew). THE GRAND TOTAL FOR THIS YEARS FIRST FUND RAISING EVENT IS.....................WAIT FOR IT..............$1,137.32 !!!!!!

Lisbon - Members of the Lisbon Community School Parent Teacher Organization (PTO) spent St. Patrick’s Day at the Lisbon Transfer Station dumpster diving for students.   During the day members of the elite force of divers spread awareness of Box Top for Education collection and the aluminum tab pulling.  The dedicated, expertly skilled divers collected 304 Box Tops, 266 pull tabs, 80 Coke Reward points and 11.45 in return-ables.  The Box Tops, return-ables and Coke reward points are used by the PTO as additional resources to provide great monthly free, family oriented events.  Redemptions from the collection help pay for field trips and requested supplies by staff not covered in the school’s budget.  The event was a huge success spreading awareness in the community. The Dumpster Diving team will meet again at the Transfer Station in Lisbon on Saturday, April 21 and May 19.
