ScottM Posted November 2, 2009 Posted November 2, 2009 The check is being cut now, and should arrive from my bank in a week or so. Quote
Siouxmama Posted November 3, 2009 Posted November 3, 2009 I'll get a check for $50 out to you soon. Quote
siouxforeverbaby Posted November 3, 2009 Posted November 3, 2009 Check will be in the mail tomorrow! Quote
MafiaMan Posted November 3, 2009 Author Posted November 3, 2009 I'm in the ballpark of $300 in contributions thus far...thank you all for your kindness. Quote
sagard Posted November 4, 2009 Posted November 4, 2009 I'm impressed with your kindness in these times. $500 for a mites program is a big chunk of ice time. Quote

NorthDakotaHockey Posted November 4, 2009 Posted November 4, 2009 I'll bite on this one MafiaMan. Especially it it will help keep your kid off of the street and going down the same paths in life taken by his old man. Besides, I probably owe it to you from our darts game a few years back. To whom shall check be made payable, and to where shall it be sent? Quote

YaneA Posted November 10, 2009 Posted November 10, 2009 OK, I have until November 15th to round up some funds...I'm a bit hesitant to put my home address here, so if you're interested in contributing, send me a PM and I'll reply back with my address. Judging by the handful of responses I've seen so far, I'm in the neighborhood of $100-$150, so I'm hoping for some more interest. Thanks everyone! How is the fund raising going, MM? Are you near your goal? Quote
MafiaMan Posted November 11, 2009 Author Posted November 11, 2009 How is the fund raising going, MM? Are you near your goal? I have almost accumulated enough funds to book my week-long trip to Cancun fully sponsor one Kennedy mites team. I would like to thank those of you who contributed their funds to this effort and look forward to sipping margaritas on the beach of the Caribbean to sharing some photos once the banners and jerseys have been ordered.

MafiaMan Posted November 14, 2009 Author Posted November 14, 2009 Last call for contributors - I've raised $420 of the $500 goal thus far, not including my own contribution. Thank you all again for your support. Quote

Thank you all again for your support. If you don't get another $80, does that mean Zygi Wilf will stop taking my calls? It was kinda nice to be part-owner of a sports dynasty even if only for a little while. Quote

It was kinda nice to be part-owner of a sports dynasty even if only for a little while. Update: Received another $40 contribution yesterday evening before practice, so I'm up to $460. I wrote out a check for $500 and secured the sponsorship of the Intermediate Mites team. The mite coordinator told me before practice, and I quote, "the sponsorship was the talk of the board meeting last night." Thanks again, everyone. Quote

jimdahl Posted November 17, 2009 Posted November 17, 2009 Wanting to check up on our team, I googled "Bloomington Kennedy Mites" and must say that, though they didn't teach me much about the team, I liked the first couple hits... http://lmgtfy.com/?q=bloomington+kennedy+mites I see our intermediates had their 2nd dryland practice tonight: http://www.kennedyhockey.org/page/show/99146-calendar. Excellent. Quote

MafiaMan Posted November 25, 2009 Author Posted November 25, 2009 Update: Full $500 sponsorship has been received. Any late-comers to the game will simply allow me to offer a small refund to those folks who kindly kicked in $100 apiece to make this happen. Also, I've received word that SiouxSports.com is the sponsor for the Kennedy Intermediate Gold team. Quote
MafiaMan Posted December 1, 2009 Author Posted December 1, 2009 Update: Kennedy jersey was hand-delivered to me five minutes ago by one of the head coaches. PM me with your cell phone number if you would like me to send you a picture of the back of the jersey. When I have more time, I'll post pictures here or on Facebook. Thanks again to all who made this happen! Quote
YaneA Posted December 1, 2009 Posted December 1, 2009 Jersey looks great. Have a great season, kids! Quote
Sioux-cia Posted December 1, 2009 Posted December 1, 2009 LOVE IT!!!! I bet it puts a smile on Jim's face!! Quote
