There has been a small discussion going on today on another thread (the 'Strong Leader' thread), that was discussing Pres. Bush and his recent leadership. Along the way, the suggestion came up to have Mac customize a rod for the President. Someone has identified the ability to ensure that the gift would actually get to him.
We decided to see if we could solicit enough contributions from the board to fund a new Rod/Reel combo, complete with a Mac original.
Since we now have this going and started with at least 3-4 of us interested, I have offered to be the collection point. Our intention is to collect enough donations to purchase a rod and reel, then Mac will add the finishing touches. We are intending to make the purchase(s) from American companies. So here goes. If you would like to participate, read on.
I would 'suggest', that donations be about $10.00 each. Any amount of $$ would of course be welcome. If you wish to contribute more (or less), then the amounts would remain confidential. All donations should be via cash or check. Don't need Money orders unless that is your preference. If you write a check, make it payable to me (use my regular name, NOT Texas Transplant!).

If you decide to send something, email me with the amount so that I can 'count up' what's coming. I will hold all monies (including checks), until we are at the needed funding level.
Now, we just have to determine the funding level.
