Count me in for $25 too.

I do think that we should support adverts for the SFD in the Press.

But not in some random place but rather in the technology pages as that is where our demographic is likely to be reading.

Just putting an advert in some random place in the paper eg in the fashion section or the sports section is going to be a monumental waste of money.

my 2c (or $25  (-: )

I agree.

Some posters put up around the place and flyers would have just as much impact. ~$20 can go a long way.

Who is the target market?

There must be better ways we can get to the limited number of people that come to these things.

How about a pledge system? Rik needs $300-400 - say $350.00 (don't forget he is feeding in other money too).

How about we aim to contribute up to half of the $350.00 from CLUG funds and half from pledges, dollar for dollar. So if we get $175 in pledges CLUG contributes $175, and the target is met. If we get $200 in pledges CLUG contributes $150 to make up to the target. If we only get $100 in pledges CLUG only contributes the same, ie $100.

I'll start by pledging $25.00, and I 'll fix up a page on the wiki for pledges to be recorded, once a couple of other people have supported the idea.
