It's payback time....

[Jim Jarzabek]

All of us Forum members have benefited greatly from the forums, whether it is the invaluable information we receive about repairs, the assistance we receive from other members checking out a prospective new Airstream when we live miles away, or just chatting about life in general.....

A few of us make some money as well!

Some of us have been affected by the attempts to generate necessary revenue by having internet advertisers appear on the site. That is not going so well.

So, I am proposing we start donating to the cause here people. There is a lot of volunteers who put a lot of time in making this Forum work. But there are hard costs involved. I would like to start by sending a check for $25.00.
Perhaps Andy can provide a mailing address or even a Paypal account to donate to.

If you can't donate money, please donate your time!

Thanks to the Airstream Forums and all its' intelligent and caring members!

Jim, Amy & baby Deva

Thanks for the kind post! Your gesture is very kind. In the past we wereable to accept donations that helped us get over some growth hurdles. The plan is to offer a premier account level that will give some perks to members in exchange for a small donation. I plan to work on this system in the next week or so and try to roll it out. Look for more details to come...

Andy, the membership upgrade is a good idea.....
But we donate because it is the right thing to do and it is needed.
Can you send me a name and address that we can send a check to by private message if you can't post it on this thread?
We believe if you give back, it just grows.......

Thanks!

I'm in as well. PM me and the "check's in the mail." This forum is too valuable a resource to go by the wayside. Let us all know.
