i just sold some junk on ebay & sent some cash via paypal!

 

Paypal sent


this is a good thing you are doing, i hope everyone pitches in, if you cant afford to send money at least send some words of encouragment and support. this kid is brave!

 

Pay pal sent. It's just a little but I hope it helps. You are good people in my book. Be well. Jaysin

 

I sent a little so Andy, you and your Dad hang out at the drags and have a great time!

 

JD,

i'm guessing that the red x i see is a pic of the amount. unfortunately here at work photobucket is blocked. so how 'bout puttin that in writing (typing?) for us who can't see what's posted?

thanx.

oh, yeah:

andy - i'll be seein' you at mokan...

 

I just caught this post.Where do I mail the money?Is there a Canadian address I can send to?I also have some air miles that I would be willing to donate.
This is great thing you guys are doing.

 

Floorman says he's got 4500 Air Canada miles. Anybody else here got A/C miles they can pool? I'll do the legwork on tickets once it is a go. Most FF miles will allow you to 'donate' miles. If we get enough A/C guys in I'll do the run down on it.

Good call, Floorman!

 

Thank you guys for those miles...

ATCH... The fund is just a bit over $1400 as of today (Apr 12th)... plus the auctions.

Thank you all...

Small token paid forward via Paypal...

God Speed to Andy and everyone else who is trying to make the best of this situation.

I've never known a more generous group of guys in my life! I'll do a Hamb Auction deal too with the proceeds to go to the fund.

 

Sending a few when I get home tonight....

 

Just added to the cause.

 

nice thought, Joe. I contributed a twenny spot in the paypal acct to help.

 

Added to the fund, have a blast.

 

Any updates on Andy's situation? Is he gonna make it to the drags?

 

And what did we all manage to raise in total? I'm hoping to make it, but I'm not holding my breath at this point.

Keep us all posted!

 

BTTT, Time is getting short. Where do we stand on getting Andy to the drags?

Doc.

 

That's what I was thinking. I don't want there to be a hassle getting airline tickets and if there is we need to know about it quickly so we can cover it!

 

I just sent a PM to both you and Leon. It has all the links and maps for the airlines. It seems pretty simple but looks like you need to book the tickets since they're your miles.
It might be best for you and Leon to work on that together (names, times...etc.)

Tulsa looks like the closest airport served by NWA...

DOC's right... we are short-timin' so it's best if it gets done soon.

Let me know if I can help in any way.


JOE

 

Yes I also was wondering what the total is now, the last it was posted it was a little over $1,400 however that was prior to our auctions (Roundup t-shirt, Doc = $500 & panel prints, RustyRedRam = $110.) ending which netted $610. total not to mention all the other donations which have come in. I am assuming at least $2,500 by now? Have there been enough frequent flyer miles donated for Andy and his father?

Good work and thanks for doing this.

 

I through in $10.00

 

The PayPal account is at $2,289.72

The Bank account is at $728.32


It's nice to be associated with such good folks...


JOE

 

OK. I'll pony up one of the tickets with my NWA or American miles. That should take about 25,000 miles to do this. If anybody else has miles, there is a way they can be 'donated' but if you've got enough for a ticket, then by all means, lets do it and get them there!!!

 

Looks like a heck of a lot of travel. I think they can go on Thursday as well if they want to go to the Springfield Swap.

Come on guys get in behind this. A small donation is going to make a really good thing happen.

 

Some frequent flyer miles are reciprocal to other airlines. We have used NWA frequent flyer miles for Delta flights in the past. Wonder if NWA miles are good on Air Canada which does fly into Joplin. Unfortunately I think we only have about 2 miles in our account right now but I will check with Ken when he gets back into town to see if he has more than I think.

 

I've got American miles as well. I haven't seen any links to any of the Canadian airlines but I'll check NWA.com and American's site.

 

50$ is on its way via paypal, may take a little while, but it'll get there
