Ron-a-Thon
This Ron-a-thon is a two-week, silent auction to help keep The Quidditch Pitch online. In just two years, the site has grown from 200 members to over 12,000. We have been funding the site ourselves since the very beginning, almost three years ago. But we need assistance this year to pay for web hosting and a variety of other expenses that go with running the site.
We appreciate all your support as members and authors over the last two years and would send Ron to you, but Annie refuses to allow him to leave her sight. There might a be court order involved but we have learned not to ask about those things.
