Dear Charity members, Friends,  and Rainbow Angels:

 

As some of you may know, since 9-11 our headcount at Rainbow Skatenight has dropped dramatically!!!  Some figures of what we raised:

2000 -   $1387.75

2001 -   $3206.00

2002 -   $3394.00

2003 -   $624.50

 

I'm sure that most of you have seen the amount of money that you had gotten from Rainbow Skate is not as near as what you have received in the past.  The truth is, we are in big trouble.  Skate World Northwest took over new owners, and I have been told that the headcount has to come up or we will lose our Skatenight!!!  I don't know about you, but this is one of the very few events you can come to for physical activity without alcohol or going to the bar for a good time.  I would hate to see this event go; I have been trying to get the word out more, and it is not working.  The more people that come, the more of a chance you will earn money for your charity.  We have supported you for some time, and now I need help to help this event to continue!!!!  You forwarding Skatenight newsletter will help a lot.  Advertising and having staff come out will help out as well.  Spread the word to all your friends?  Do you want to see this event go?  I do not ask for much from you all and would like to raise more money for your charity with your help!!!  Please e-mail me with comments and suggestions.  Also I would like to have a meeting with someone from each organization.  Please let me know if this will be better to do at night or during the day.  Please respond soon!!!
