[Blindtlk] Paying Drivers and Golf Tournaments

[Peter Donahue]

Good evening everyone,

    Perhaps you could do something nice for them in return for their driving 
you to where you need to go. We had a couple taking us to church before they 
moved to another part of town. When we offered to pay them for taking us or 
whenever we tried reimbursing them for buying us our dinner on the grounds 
there reply was always "Don't worry about it."

    Cornerstone Church holds an annual "Legacy Banquet" to raise funds for 
Cornerstone Christian School one of the top Christian schools in the 
country. One of the banquet activities is a golf ball drop. Attendees are 
invited to perches golf balls for $25 each. The golf balls will be loaded on 
to a helicopter and dropped on to a putting green on the church grounds. The 
buyer of the golf ball that lands in or closest to the hole wins $5000.00 
approximately one year's tuition at Cornerstone Christian School. The couple 
in question has a daughter they would like to enroll in Cornerstone 
Christian school but cannot swing the tuition. In appreciation of their 
taking us to church and home we plan to buy a golf ball in their daughter's 
name and pray her family will win the $5000 so they can enroll her in 
Cornerstone Christian School for at least one year. This would enable their 
daughter to begin attending the school and give them additional time to find 
ways to cover the tuition so she can finish her schooling in a Christian 
environment.

    Speaking of golf tournaments many organizations sponsor them to raise 
funds. This is a fundraiser the NFB ought to consider making an annual 
event. Why not call it the "NFB Cup." Cornerstone Church calls their golf 
tournament the "Pastor's Cup." It is played on the TPC Course at the JW 
Marriott in San Antonio on the Oak's Course. This is the same course on 
which the Bolero Texas Open is played. What a great idea!

Afternoon, Mari,

Personally, I am inclined to think, offering
classmate dollars, in exchange for her driving
you, she may find insulting. I mean, isn't that
like, expecting one to compensate his hoast for
the electricity you use? I mean, however, if you
and she work it out so that you help cover gas on
long trips, I suppose that's a reasonable idea.

Carbe offering to pay her? â? Hunzikerâ?< -- *"I can do all things through
