Auckland Area New Banner Fundraiser


Snoozin

Recommended Posts

Hello all Auckland and Upper North peoples!

 

The existing (very large) oldschool.co.nz banner is now in the custody of KK, esq. in sunny Wellington for the benefit of the whole country and with the upcoming summer of events, some discussion with other Auckland members has prompted me to float this idea and see what sort of buy-in we would have if we were to fundraise amongst our area only, for a banner and stand to be used exclusively for Auckland/Upper North area events.

 

What we thought of proposing was a simple donation scheme - as little or as much as you feel like donating, towards having this made/constructed.

 

Approximate cost would be $450ish at a guess, accounting for manufacture of the synthetic canvas banner itself, a metal stand, protective coating of the stand as well as bungee cords, ropes, fastenings etc as required.

 

If interested in donating please express your intentions here - I will endeavour to get in touch with you all shortly regarding this and get it cranking. If we could, getting something sorted pre-Leadfoot would be ideal, plus we can also use it at Caffeine and Classics over summer and give our little group of attendees some identity!

 

I have created a new account (under my name, sorry) for donations:

PLEASE mark deposits with username and reference "BANNER" so I know who to thank at the end of it all.

 

Thanks,

 

Richy

Intentions of donating expressed.

Is this to be a general OS banner, or one that says "Upper North Island", or "Northern Division", or "Auckland > Wellington", or something along those lines?

Just a straight banner ed.

It'll just travel travel restrictions on its passport.

Just to clarify in case anyone gets the wrong idea - I've only got the banner because I am making a new stand for it.

 

It's not going to stay in my "custody" so to speak but I will be responsible for keeping close tabs on who has it when it does get sent around the country.
