Dam, your quick. That's just great!

What ever we come up with I'm game. I don't think there has been a more communal brother in NCKA than Mooch. Time for the community to support our brother. I agree the more directly the funds go to Joel the better.

We can also have an auction at Albion or straight up donations. I am now thinking of changing the money proceeds. To help one of our own might be better than losing it in the whole MLPA BS. Now get those forms in!

I was thinking the same thing as Craig. Let's give all proceeds from albion to the mooch life protection account(mlpa).

I really like that Jack . Ireallllllly like that! MLPA for Mooch.

I think all the ideas thrown out are AWESOME and the cool thing is that we will not ALL be able to attend or contribute to ALL of them, but we will all have the option of helping out in whatever way we feel is the best for us...

For me, I think the cool thing about the paddle Porky is going to put on is that we will be able to get donations/support/attention from the non-NCKA local SC community as well...every little bit helps and even if the padle only ends up raising a little bit of money it will still have been worth it!!

I am really looking forward to it...

Here is a rough map I put together that shows the general path of the paddle...may be a little too far offshore in certain spots, but I like the idea of saying that it is an even 9 mile distance!! I 'aint never paddled that far personally so I am looking forward to the challenge as well!!

 

Sincerely,

Jim

Also just got an email reminding me that I got suckered into running the Nike Women's Marathon on 10/17/2010!!!

http://inside.nike.com/blogs/nikerunning_events-en_US/2010/03/15/2010-race-weekend-and-registration-information

26.2 miles up and down SF Hills...but, with plenty of good scenery/eye candy out there as well.....20,000 women and ME!!   

Will run this race in Mooch's honor and have no doubt I will be able to raise quite a bit of $$ from my friends and family members...

Bad news is...I gotta start running/training again!!  AAAAGGGHH!!!   

Sincerely,

Jim

i'm in for EVERYTHING ABOVE,BELOW and STILL IN THOUGHT PROCESS.
I am having a difficult time with this whole situation. For my life will never be complete without the person who taught me how to live the NCKA Style of Life. 
Thanks for EVERYTHING, EVERYONE! = now lets get busy doing whatever each of us can to help him.

you guys are REAL_people and I LOVE YOU for it.

See the Mooch Life Protection Account donate button at the top left of every page.  Yes, there is $500 already donated.  You guys are the BEST!!!

Man....  you guys are incredible.

And yes, Ben, you should auction some paintings... because I want a shot at one!

From this point forward,All proceeds from the Albion Open will be put in the new MLPA for Mooch. I have yet to recieve all the registration forms in yet. Please do this soon if you are coming to the event. lookm at the list and double check to see if your names on it. If you cant come to Albion and want to make your donation for the event proceeds. Fill out a form and send a check. A list of all contributors will be announced at the potluck Saturday night. We will have an auction Saturday night also. After the awards. Bring what you can and lots of dough for the auction. If anyone wants to talk further about this Pm me or call 707-765-9902 Myself and Jack will need help doing the auction. Thanks, Craig. I will talk to DaveW about this as the proceeds were going to go to help offset costs for MLPA activities. This is more important.
