[Lnc-business] Give or Get Challenge

[Daniel Hayes]

Larry,

You are an easy target.  I just have to use your own lines and techniques on you.

Glad to have both you and Caryn Ann on board for a "Lifetime."

We all have a lot of ground to catch up to Bill Redpath though.  He is the only current LNC member to have exceeded $100,000 in donations. Kudos to him for setting the standard.

We all need to push harder all the time to finally break through.  I am very glad to have you on the LNC team.  We all can and should make each other better than we could be alone.

>>> I realize that some people are in school(some even in high school) or other things.  I get some are more focused on their states but we are members of a National board.  That comes with obligations.  I honestly think each of us should be bringing money to the LNC. Either with a give or get. It's a VERY common practice on many boards.  We need to be setting the tone for the whole organization.  How do WE expect members to donate if we don't? Can't everybody do at least $25/month?
>>> 
>>> Yes, there is expense being on the LNC with the travel that comes out of our own pockets.   That probably costs about $1500 or more for each of us per year. Many Party members don't get that we pay our own travel to LNC meetings.  But we still need to do more.
>>> 
>>> Since I won't be traveling for our December meeting I am pledging $500 towards the convention that I will pay in that month.
>>> 
>>> I also am pledging to a $10,000 give or get for 2017.  I encourage EVERY LNC member to at least pledge to yourself some amount that makes you have to push. We NEED to take this party to the next level.   That won't happen if we are coasting. A professional organization takes money.
