| 545321 | 2007-05-13 07:26:00 | Hiya all, It's BGLan's one year anniversary in 5 days. We're stoked. You're stoked. Lets make this one a huge bash; register and prepay QUICKLY - there are only 8 seats left as of writing this. We've saved 3 of the seats for trademe. Why? Well, I recently came across the Games for Kids fundraising drive by Team Affliction, and I wanted to help. It's such a good cause - for more details please read this thread on their forums: www.iwagewar.com The idea is, the amount + the trademe fees will be subtracted off the total, and then the remainder will be donated towards Games for Kids. To view the progress of the tickets and perhaps bid for the good cause, please visit this link: www.trademe.co.nz I want to donate but I'm not exactly in a position to, so I figured I could atleast raise publicity and money. If this is successful we'll make it even bigger next time, with the possibility of BGLan matching the amount donated. |
