Title: Go Fundme For Rickie (rnvinc)
Post by: Bob B on July 29, 2019, 01:25:54 PM

I have started a Go Fund Me campaign in the hopes of raising enough for Rickie to be able to get a Mega 360 .... or whatever equipment he would like.

Rickie puts an unbelieveable amount of effort into helping people with their problems / questions on this an other forums ..... Please help in raising funds to get Rickie some new equipment.

P.S.  Donations can be in ANY amount .... The Go Fund Me page asks for a TIP .... I selected zero since I'm pretty sure they get 2-3% anyway.

Please post here if you donate.  No need to post the amount you donated, but you can if you want.

I donated because Rickie deserves it.  He is an incredible resource always willing to help.

OK Guys .... We have a new development. HUMMINBIRD IS GOING TO DONATE A MEGA 360 TO Rickie!! ... and also to Wayne P. I had started a campaign on BBC for Wayne.
The expectation right now is that they should be able to get a Mega 360 to both of them by sometime in October.... ahead of the general release.

They are well aware of all the effort both of these guys put into helping other people.

So .... I am going to shut down the Go Fund Me campaign and distrubute the funds donated to them. Bill Carson had some ideas about how they might use the donataed funds and I will discuss that with Wayne and Rickie via PM.
I know that both Wayne and Rickie are grateful for the unexpected reward from all those who have stepped up and donated to the campaigns.

Everyone give Humminbird a BIG shout out for being so generous.

Two very deserving people. ( Rickie and Wayne )   Quality information and guidance with Humminbird products for a long time.

I'm glad Humminbird is aware of these individuals and recognized the value both to Humminbird and their customers.
If I worked for Humminbird and was in the position, they would get one each of ALL the new products.
They take a load off Debbie and the help desk.

And a special Thank You to Bob B for starting this.
