who are these people anyway? 10 years ago, they kept sending the wife and i donation requests to put down a new floor in the gym. i just ignored it. then we went to our daughters graduation and i walk by this plaque on the wall w/the names of people who donated over $100, and my name was on it. wtf??? so the wife fesses up and admits to sending them a check.

then, last month, they call me and want to know if i'll ride on a friggin donkey at a donkey basketball game to raise money for some other kind of horse shit. i told them to piss off...i didn't spend $100 for a floor, just to ride/fall off a damn donkey and jack it all up again.

proves they did teach me something.

Our Alumni Association primarily only does one thing. They have the annual banquet. They solicit donations on the invitations for their scholarship but it is totally voluntary. They also sponsor a golf tournament as a fund raiser forthe scholarship. That's about it. My wife's HS Alumni Assoc. sends out professionally printed requests for money. Minimum amount is typically $100. We've never sent any nor attended any of their events.
