)I am going to stick with the original plan and not collect any more money than we have now, i.e. enough to fund this site for one year starting in July. I would just feel uncomfortable with anything else, though I do appreciate the sentiment behind it.My thanks also for all of your kind words. They certainly brought a smile to my face

Hello Everyone
As you may have heard, starting July 2010 Ning will no longer provide free sites. After reviewing the Ning Pricing Plans and some discussion here at Life after Ning?Ning free pages closing down there seems to be a consensus to go with the Ning Plus Plan.
Ning Plus will cost us $199.95 a year (or $19.95 a month). Given that there are currently 247 members, I think it is reasonable to assume that we can raise the annual fee. If so, we won't have to worry about fundraising for another year. This will be approximately L$54,200. I propose that we do not collect more than this amount asone year in advance seems like a good milestone. If we do not collect enough money by July, I propose we go on a monthly basis even though it will cost us 16% more. Sound good?
I have setup a donation box at the Coeur Fairgrounds . Look for the big Royal Courts sign & Pay it to donate!
Many thanks!
Tatiana
