A lot of your old material is still appropriate as we have so many new Freepers without the sense of history of why we have these Freepathons and what Free Republic does with these fund.
Of course those funds depend on the donations of Freepers.
JustShe's current ad insert was great, and I think that it really helped get us up and over the top.
Again we had a large number of new monthly donors sign up. This is so important to the future of Free Republic. The monthly donors provide a predictable and dependable base and a monthly flow of donations. Rotti Biz does such a great job updating and maintaining those lists.
MO1, gabz and the others who keep the Freepathon rolling on and alive did a great job.
A discussion a week or so before the next Freepathon would be good.

Thanks.....and I think a pre-meeting is a good idea too. But a pre-meeting, requires, as Rotti pointed out, a few days notice before the fundraiser (hint hint, Jim).
I answered several FRmails, generated by that last grannymoon ad insert, from new Freepers who had read the ad out on the boards, asking if this was a monthly fundraiser...or if they could donate annually etc. In other words....they didn't understand the structure.
Besides the fact that a war was going on......this was ALSO tax time...so I think the freepathon went VERY well, considering.
Thats the end of my random thoughts. :-)
