most of you probably
already have the email from Greg with the update on the funds.
Greg says
that after the party expenses,pins for all,etc,there is still 301.00 left.
I suggest that it be left with Greg to split among himself and any
others that may have some expenses to cover.
If there are no more
expenses,use it to buy something for himself and the others in recognition of
the time and effort put into this very successful project.

We dont WANT any "special" recognition. That's what this was
all about..... Helping someone ELSE! I'll bet if you asked all 188 folks that
contributed, NONE of them would want to be recognized above anybody else.
When all is done and settled, anything that's left will be given to the
Hines. After all, that's what it was sent in for, right?

I concur with Joe.
Give the leftover money to Bill and Linda. He is right. It was raised for them
and should be given to them to help with the expenses of Big Red 2. After all, I
think Bill will be needing to by LOTS of gas while the weather is still nice
enough to ride.

Well, the spirit of
Jeff's post is certainly commendable. But the simplest route is to just send it
along to Bill and Linda. That honors the intent of all the donors, and protects
Greg or anyone else from any shadow of criticism for what might later be
construed as "personal gain."
My .12 cents on that topic

I agree with others
that the money was to help buy this wing for Bill and Linda, so the money should
go to them to help maintain the motorcycle, buy gas, or what ever they want to
do with it.

Well, chrome, eats,
even a get-a-way by Bill and Linda while there's till time to ride all sound
like good uses for the money to me. How about insurance or tags? It might be
enough to pay for one or both of those items. Either way, it seems to me that
rightfully it ought to be given to Bill and Linda.
Just my thought on
the subject.

I'm with ya on this

some cash to boot, I bet I'd be doing something nice for Linda, too.
Looking forward to meeting some of you down the road, so wear them pins
proudly. They're all the recognition we need.

We all know that you
guys weren't looking for any special recognition,and I didn't mean to imply that
you were.
I just thought that maybe there were some uncovered expenses or
something,but since it seems everything is covered,I'm all for giving the
remainder to Bill & Linda.

I first want to
commend Jeff Kelton for his suggestion to show our appriciation to all who
helped make this happen. I started to make a list but stopped because I was
afraid I would leave someone out. You all know who you are. I agree, send the
remainder to Bill & Linda for something special that THEY would like. God

We're not "jumping"
on you Jeff. Your heart's in the right place.... Thanks for thinking of it, but
I think you see the trend here.
We're ALL richer for having taken part
in this. I wouldnt trade it for all the world! I was at the dentist today, and
told him and my hygenist about it. And like everyone ELSE I've told, they were
pretty much in tears by the time I got done. My "one hour" appointment took an
hour and a half!

As for
what Jeff said, It is very thoughtful, and I thank you, But, I do not
think that there is anything, and I say again anything that will top the
feelings that we were having while watching Bill during the presentation. That
alone was worth a thousand times more than was collected.....
Thanks to
ALL...

Greg, you should have
seen him yesterday at Pine Mountain. Jumped right up on the podium, holding the
American flag in his right hand, and started speechifyin! Now you can't deny
that, can you Joe?
Seriously though, it was great to receive his 1st
hand knowledge of the presentation. He made us feel like we were there.
