I wanted to say thank you to everyone who participated in the fund raising auctions in April. After freight costs we generated just under $600 for the general fund to offset expenses and our monthly subscriptions ("ad free for members" and "attachment storage") and the board is in solid financial condition for at least the next year to come. I deeply appreciate the support I receive - not just financially - but also all of the notes of gratitude and encouragement I receive from members. I frequently get asked how folks can help, and my response would be that the easiest way for folks to help is to continue to use our Amazon affiliate link for all of your hobby, household, and even business purchasing needs. It's super easy - just access Amazon through our affiliate link every time you shop and a small percentage of revenue is passed along to us without any increase in the price you paid. Also, if the spirit moves you, please jump into some stylish RTH gear - buy a t-shirt or a sweatshirt or mug. On that subject, watch for some new and fun RTH gear with rock hounding themes, coming soon - hopefully by this summer. Here's to a healthy and happy future for the RTH forum  |

Thanks to you as well. That auction being run along with packing and shipping that many MFRB'S was a task I would not look forward to doing.

 aww shucks, y'all are too kind. Kudos to you, Tommy! Love the hoodies, they’re both nice 😀 A question: is there a way for we peasants here to send along a few shillings to help with the forum’s piggy bank? |

geoff59 you can use the amazon link at the bottom of the page or buy stuff at the etsy t-shirt page, though the link at the bottom of the Tommy posts seems to not work for me right now.
