Default Help me help my school band?

Hello!

I am my Mother's son. Who is my Mother? Jennie Martin!

I know it is late, and I hope this is alright to do, but could you please read my Mom's writing on the front page of ifish, and see if you know anyone that could help me to help my school band by buying something to support our band?

I know it is late, but the money needs to be in by Monday. Since that is so late, maybe my Mom can cover the check, if she trusts you, and you can send her the money, in case it is late?

My school band is really very good. We work hard, and go to many concerts and contests around the state. We win, too! More important than that, however, is that we believe that music is an important part of our education.

If you know of anyone who needs to buy Christmas presents for their employees, or even if you just could order one thing, it would help us!

Thank you for considering helping us, and I hope my Mom isn't mad for me saying she would cover your check if it's late! She might ground me for that!

I'd put this on the fishing board, but I've heard that she is pretty tough on non fishing subjects. Don't tell her, but I really don't like fishing very much! Not only because it's not my favorite sport, but because my Mom sometimes is out fishing too late, and all I get to eat for dinner is macaroni and cheese, or a can of ravioli. I think that that qualifies as child abuse. Don't you?

Sincerely,
David Martin

The catalogue to order from is online, Here and my Mom's mailing address that she put up is here.

David - is there a way to order online and have your school get credit for it?

I just looked at the site, and then called them.
Nope! No way to do that, the lady said.
Maybe my pay pal account, and then I write a check?
I dunno. It's just plain kind of late, but I do admire David for trying!
:smile:
Ravioli... Yeah, right! I bought KFC last night!!!

Yeah, It was the poor kid has to fend for himself thing that got to me.

Most times, my kids would rather open a can of soup than sit down and have a "regular" meal anyway.

Does Paypal do American Express? Orders placed now would come in when?

Thanks!

Let's see... Orders placed now, according to the sales and marketing that David's MOTHER is doing for him, would come in the first or second week in December... if I can read his handwriting. :smile:

Is David's mother running the delivery department, too?

David has two things more to sell, and he is threatening to go outside around the neighborhood. Uh, David? It's dark out and there is 40 mph winds going on!

They extended him. He'll make it, or I'll buy them out! :smile:
