Vancouver Folk Festival - bring your cheques to July 7 "The Importance of Joy" @ Ramada
Maria and I are doing fund-raising - what do you think of our pitch so far?
******************************************
Hi, this is Gwenda, is that Maria?
Do you have a minute to talk? I’m calling to ask you to participate in an outreach event to introduce people to Maharaji.
If, YES then - yippee!
We’re finding the old-style hall events don’t work so this summer we're moving into the parks and streets and do things differently. Nuthin’ to lose.
So we’re going to have a tent outside this year’s Vancouver Folk Festival July 14-15-16. We’re going to staff it 24 hours a day and sleep there one or two nights ahead to guarantee our spot. We’ll have two stations at the back where people can put on head-phones and watch special 7-12 min excerpts of Maharaji, and then in the evening we’ll put up the big white sheet like the old days, and show a full DVD. (just joking about the sheet - we'll have a screen).
We need volunteers for the day, and to contribute financially. Are you interested in either of these?
If yes, THEN talk about financial FIRST (that's why we're calling)
Well, I’m calling you specifically to ask for a financial contribution. Our budget is $1300 with biggest item being purchase of 2 Eliminator 1200 watt Power Box batteries. While one is being used, the other can be charged so we’ll have quiet electricity all day. We'll be using these batteries again for other outdoor events this summer. The second biggest item is purchase of Discovering More DVDs and other give-away materials.
If you are interested in contributing financially then please bring a cheque (no amount too small) to the Community Meeting and "The Importance of Joy " DVD screening, the Friday after next, July 7. See www.eventline.ca for details.
If you are interested in volunteering on the days of the event, I will take your contact information and John will contact you.
LOVE YOU Maria babe!
