Dear BD,
A few weeks back we let you know about the GB World Games Team's fundraising
site at IndieGoGo. The total raised has been steadily increasing ever since
thanks to your generosity.
To those who have given: A massive thank you, we really appreciate your support.
To those who have signed up for 'perks': keep your eyes peeled at Tour 1, we
will be coming to find you! (If you think it is unlikely that you will be at
Tour 1 or 2 then do email us and we will arrange to get you your 'perk'.)
If you haven't already given and you wish to, you only have 5 more days until
the fund closes - so no time to lose!
Thanks again,
Richard Gale #18
on behalf of the GB World Games Team 2013
