I
would like to share something special that happened this summer.
I volunteered to host International Air Cadet Exchange cadets
inbound from Canada and the Netherlands.
The budget that I was given was $30.00 per day, per head.
That was to feed, house and entertain our guests.
Realizing that the tour would be lacking on that kind of budget, I
set out to fund raise. I sent
out 85 letters to family, friends, and former cadets.
I expected about a 10% response and an average donation of $25.00. To my amazement, I received over 40 responses with an average
donation of $100.00. This
increased our budget by $3000.00, which made the trip just incredible for
our visitors. I would like to
thank the following people for their kind contributions:
