Basically all raffle proceeds go to Jaxson. All sticker sells go to Jaxson. And there will be an envelope in the cash box for charity specific donations. I would do a jar but unfortunately I've been to events where people have walked off with the jar. So it'll be an envelope. I will also have a credit card system set up so people can swipe a donation that will be earmarked for jaxson and separate from expenses. And you can always payal. I'll probably keep the donation active for a week or so after the event. It'll take me that long to run the books and get the money all in order and dialed in through paypal so I can cash it out and deliver it to Jaxson's family.

I hope people realize how serious I am about the charity portion of this event. It's why I did what I did. I put my health at risk, spent tons of time, tons of money and been away from my family. I've seen my daughter and wife a total of MAYBE 3 hours in the last week. I am not gonna be pocketing the donation money.

This is what i love about this community: love, respect, maturity. just to show how great this comm is: on sunday, my lady had left her wallet at BAM. we were already in campbell/toga by the time we realized this. she started flippin that she lost her wallet for good. i feel like any other community in that scale would go off and by a downpipe with the newly found money. but no, someone turned it in and we came back to pick it up.
enough of being off topic. i just wanted to express how grateful i am that this money is going to a more than great cause. I pray that Jaxson starts seeing the brighter parts of the day as im sure we all hope as well. Thanks for a great bam, look forward to it next year

I'd say we have a pretty good community. I had to put a lot of faith in people to step up and people did. I had to put a lot of faith in the community to respect, me, i-club and the park enough to self moderate... and they did. I had to put a lot of faith that people would not steal as there was a lot of money floating around. And from what I'm seeing... no one did.

I'm proud of what i-club showed with this event.
