**** ****4th of July YN Contest -- Donation List !!! UPDATE 07/04/04

I realize that with all the hubbub about another giveaway around here, some might be a little gun-shy about donating to another one.

However, for the members that have been here for a year or so, many will remember the success of last year's 4th of July Contest. For the new members, let me assure you that last year's was amazing. A dozen or more "goodie-bags" went out to YNs, who absolutely loved them.

I would like to make it even bigger this year! (my wife is going to kill me, she and I spent hours crawling on the floor trying to divy up the coins/supplies)

Donations can be sent:

Michael Fattorosi
PO Box 7865
Northridge, CA 91327

Please include your PCGS handle so that we may know who has sent what. If you don't see your name, please PM me so I may post it accordingly. I'll be posting the donation list here and updating it as I receive more coins.

I ask that someone TTT this thread every now and then to make sure it stays near the top.

Let's make 4th of July really special for some YNs. I'll be posting the contest and rules as we get closer to July 4th. If we get enough donations I'll create 2 divisions -- 13 and under and 14-18.

Thanks
Michael

    I'm in. I've been away from home for the past three weeks so I have alot to do before I go visit my coins. When I do I'll throw something in a box and send it on to you. Your contest was a big success last year.
  • FrattLawFrattLaw Posts: 3,290 ✭✭
    TTT -- wow, no one wants to help YNs anymore. image (of course except for Ken, Paul, Jom and Fats)

    If there's isn't enough support I'm just going to forget for this year.

  • CoinHuskerCoinHusker Posts: 5,033 ✭✭✭
    Count me in for a few things too! Just let me know when and (sadly) if i should send them in!

    Michael, I'dlike to say something else too. If the board members could only see what I see when my son gets his winnings from last to show people whenever we have company. He runs to his room, brings out his case of winnings and goes through each coin. 90% of the people don't show much interest (nice way for adults to treat kids but that's another thread) but he is oblivious to their lack of interest. His eye's twinkle and he gets lost in his world of coins. Your contest last year started my son on this wonderful journey of numismatics. If board members could only see that twinkle in his eye, the pride and excitement he had and still has at winning that prize, I can't help but think they would want to participate.
    Let's hope they do!

    Alrighty then -- we got a little steam going here.

    The Contest is ON. It might be smaller -- but some kids will still get some real nice coins!!!

    Let's still try to get it even better than last year.

    If I had previously told you to hang on to your packages -- go ahead and send them!!!!

    Now I just have to think of a contest!!!!!

    Since my Granddaughter got a very nice package last year. To try and teach her about giving and receiving I'm going to try and pry a few things out of her hands from last year to donate this year. This might sound mean to some, but I believe in the principle of not just receiving things, this helps them later on in life, although they might think it's mean now. image

    Edit......Oooops, just remembered they are on vacation. I'll try and find something to send myself.

    Yeah I sent a little something today, not much probably compared to some but I tried. Last time though.... SOME of these kids (16-18) need to spend less time on the Internet, and go find JOBS. All these giveaways doesn't give enough incentive for them to buy they own coins. image Flame away I don't care.

    That's why the contest is going to focus on the younger ones 5-13. Depending on the donations I might do a "true" essay contest for the 14-17 year old crowd with possibly 1 really nice coin going to the winner. But I'll have to see. Most of the coins donated would probably interest the younger collectors more anyway.

    Do the YNs have to post here to enter the contest?
    My 7 year old nephew is becoming quite the collector. He even has coins that I want and he won't trade with me.
    I took him to a coin shop on Saturday and he bought (with his own money even)his first foreign bill, a 20k note from Turkey, and has been carrying it around ever since.
    He keeps all his coins in a "Special" box. I talked to him about the box on Sunday and he said that now he has 2 "Special" boxs.
    Kids crack me up.

    Phut -- Entry is open to anyone, including past winners, currently, between 5-13 yrs old. I might have a 14-17 division but it depends on the donations. I really want this to be something that will help a new YN get started. If I get an exceptional coin that an older YN would appreciate I'll open up the age bracket.

    TTT for the updated list of donations. Keep checking back to see if I received your package.

    Thanks
