I'm making progress! Despite the image snafu and various other fun things, I pulled down the LJ auctions this morning and have notified all of the winners and sent out invoices to those that I could. Altogether the second set of auctions raised $342! So far, between donations to our team, team members getting donations & the two sets of auctions, we've raised close to $1,600. That's awesome and way beyond what I expected.
Tonight I've been preparing invoices, updating spreadsheets and the fun behind the scenes stuff that takes forever. I also FINALLY ordered our team t-shirts :D
Here's what they look like:
http://dyo.customink.com/cink/r.jsp?E=jcracek%40yahoo.com&F=cassie1offI made the design myself. I had a five color version that is much closer to our Team Cassiebug logo you see plastered all over the
teamcassiebug LJ pages, but that seemed a bit girly. We've got guys on our team as well and I'd like them to at least feel semi-comfortable wearing their shirts, LOL. So, I settled on a two color design - which works out well because with a bulk discount they were only around $10 each. Not shabby. The link above is to a version of the shirt on Custom Ink singles so if anyone really likes the design you can order one there (ordered in singles they cost $20) ... although, honestly, wait till after the 17th and I may have a couple spare shirts to hand out.
Now to start on all those tax receipts for donations and the thank you notes ...
I'm up to 60 unread emails and counting. Forgive me if I'm slow to answer!
