RE: [RC] Riding To The Rescue CTR in Region 6 - Katrina Mosshammer
I hope you don't feel I
was trying to take anything away from your cause. I really do think it is
great for those rides that are able to do such things. I was just answering her
question about why it doesn't happen very often in endurance.
One other thing that
makes a difference is whether the RM is an individual or an organization.

In this case, as a 501(c)3 public charity, we are able to
get true, tax deductible donations for food and awards, etc. Plus, many
folk really do care about the "cause" and are stepping up to be of assistance
to help cut costs. So we are hoping for a decent profit.

Just speaking of my
personal experience as a manager...there's not any funds left over after the
bills are paid. A lot of times you have to dig into your own pockets just to
pay the bills. JMHO

I have wondered this-why aren't there more fundraiser rides in
Endurance? Or maybe the ones I've ridden at just didn't publicize it
was a fundraiser? I'd personally rather some money go to a
noble cause, like this one, than get a silly t-shirt or other item. Most
of us have way too much "stuff" anyway.
