Hey Todd, thanks for doing this for Tom. I was fortunate to do some climbs with him way back in the day. I'll try to stop by with a pocket full of cash on the 11th.

Glad to see the picture of the bird of prey being offered, since Tom was a falconer, among so many other amazing things.

Craig;...to keep things simple, there will be a few things auctioned on supertopo.....and a few things silent auctioned at the event;.....rest will be either set price, set your own price (donation), or raffle prizes.

I want to have a $20 donation for those that show up;........
This is to cover the cost of the party (rented porta-potties, food, gallons of beer, music, travel costs for Tom and party to attend this event, etc), and reach our fundraiser goal of $10,000.

For your $20 donation (which means if you don't have it;...that's not a problem).......you get
1. a raffle ticket for mega cool prizes (I mean some cool shit;......gear, clothes, collectables, rare cool unique stuff......all donated;..so keep it coming in!)...and if you wish for more raffle tickets for more chances to win;..you can purchaise more at the event ($5).
2. food/beer
3. A High Sierra Super topo guidebook (donated by Chris mac;..thanks!)
(while they last;..we got 4 cases!)
4. Greg Epperson Rock Prints book (donated by Greg epperson;...thanks!)
5. Use of porti-potties (don't forget to wipe;..it's an earmark of a civilized person)......one for climbers, and one for canadians/boulderers
6. Music entertainment (one , two , or three bands;......all mega-excellent!)...
7. Opportunity to buy some great climbing stuff at bro (better than pro) deals...
8. You get to hang out with the coolest people on earth.
9. You get to hang out with tucker tech.

Please keep on sending checks to me for Tom, keep sending climbing stuff for the fundraiser to sell or auction, and bring anything you can the day of and give to me......thank you, thank you, thank you;.......

If you already sent a $100 check or a bunch of cool climbing stuff to me in the mail......you don't need to pay out anymore;...just tell me, and you will get the raffle tickets, books, etc......and I appreciate your willingness to give and share.\

I know we can reach our fundraiser goal, and all sorts of cool things are already being set up, donated, lined up, and arriving.
Most of all,.......we get together, help out Tom, drink beer, eat pizza, listen to music, get some cool stuff, talk smack, check out Greg Epperson's cool slide show, enjoy the mojave desert, do some climbs, see old friends, meet new ones, get drunk, get laid (no promises here), and hang out with Tucker Tech.

Those who would like to help out Tom and get a cool Chounaird Ice Axe .......please bid!...
Thank you again to Craig Fry.
Wonderful!

Todd- sent you a PM; doesn't look like it got through. It is taking longer to package the "stuff" than I thought but there will be a few pieces that have value. Cheers to you, Andrea and the kiddos.
