GunTruck Studios would like to sponsor Best American Subject - if you don't have a sponsor yet. Where can I send you payment?

I bet we could scrape together some money and sponsor one as an Armorama.com sponsor. I think I can attend this function.

Any takers?

I sent an email to Jim inquiring about this very thing. Great minds think alike-even though you are an Army dude.

I'll send this off to the club's membership. I suspect we'll come up with a sponsorship.

Just PM me and I'll send interested donors my address. I'll collect up the money and send them a money order. If I receive under $30, I'll just make up the difference. If it's over $30, I'll make up the difference and sponsor two awards and so on.

Don't feel you have send a bunch of money, be nice just to get mentioned at the awards ceremony.

And you...get down, knock 'em out.

$5 is fine, mail is preferred. Any amount of money is good, all it takes is six members to send $5 and that's one award. But $1, $2, etc. is just as acceptable.

You know you can always count me in, separate GunTruck Studios sponsoring a category. I think Armorama.com sponsoring one would be great too.

Rob,
Thanks for administering this collection. It's a great idea to have Armorama sponsor an award (or awards).

Let me know if I can help promote the fund raising.

Bryan,
Thanks for emailing me about this also.

Cheers,
Jim

The sponsorship for Closed Top Tracked Armor Post 1945 is US$30 and is now yours. However, since our show is scheduled for September 27th, I would request that you send payment before then.


I'm sending out a check today. I haven't been home to see who mailed any money to me, but I can add that two people did request my snail mail address. Thanks to those of you who are/will be supporting the Armorama sponsorship.
