HEY FELLAS;I first off want to express my overwhelming gratitutde that you fellas stepped up like you did,when asked

 I especially want to thank *** and Zel, who got me the interview from another site. The response was overwhelming

 I did the interview to inspire more people to do this and it worked. We were able to take care of 10 fellas last year, and now it will grow into something we can not handle.

 *** and a few fellas here will meet our needs to equip 5 guys a year. Here is why it needs to stay small fellas: We have to take these guys fishing and there are only 4 of us. We need to also incorporate a feeling of recovery and support throughout the summer, the real undelying factoer here. To repay the the fellas that did just that for me when I got clean over 16 years ago

 In order for this to work, it must stay small and humble, so we are backing up a bit and will not put any board wide requests. You have to try something before you se it does not fit. In order for the original intent to keep working we do not need to grow and need limited stuff

 THANK YOU TO ALL WHO HELPED, it is time to make a decsiaon because what we do during the winter will effect the program

 So it is time to scale it down and do what we do best. 8-)

Thanks for the PM's and Thanks to all those who helped and your understanding fellas 8-)

What if we had a "Pay it Forward" sticky, I have seen this on several hunting sites I frequent, and it works great.

Basically if you have something to give away, the first person to say they want it, gets it, then has to put something up for someone else, shipping usually is worked out between parties..... It seems to work great, one such site, has over 100 pages of guys doing this for each other.

just an idea  :-/
