ok, just to let you know how the charity thing is (my view)
the fall 4x fest is for charity, cash donations go to charity. you arent giving them the park for free are you?
so in order to bring more people into the event to raise more money for the charity, businesses donate items for raffles and such. this brings more people in to the event.
would alot of people come to the event just for the charity.....yes, but more would come if there are tons of things for them to have a chance to win. that is where the business end starts and the charity stops.
so businesses want more business so can can afford to live, i donate an item for you to give away and in return my logo goes somewhere else. now when i get people buying from me, next year i can afford more donations and even to sponsor the event. our job is to give you products to give away to attract more people to your charity event.
i hope that helps, some people have good intentions on thier charity, but dont really know how they work. after all the folks in that charity get paid for what they do. charities are the most profitable businesses in the world.
now i know our club isnt in to the profit as they think they cannot have any. we are in it for the good intentions and the helping of others. as a member and a business owner i follow the same beliefs, so dont think i am in it for the profits, but my family and i have to eat and live and be able to pay to go to these charitable events. i hope that helps you out with why i want some coverage. im a small fab shop who wants to grow, and offer some of the best prices for fab parts. i would love to be able to make so much money i could sponsor the event with tons of stuff, but this year a diff cover, next year who knows, 2 covers, adjustable tj links and more. we will have to see how business goes.
