Here's the easy link to donate.
Only til Sunday the 22nd do we take advantage of the matching funds. or you can mail them in to
Ohio Cobra Club, Inc.
P.O. Box 340498
Columbus, Ohio 43235-9998

Please put what the donation is for in the memo line of the check. Check must be postmarked by 5/22 to be included in the matching dollars!

So Far $3,110 was donated prior to the matching funds pledge and $885 since, making a total of $4880.

Our cost for the bike was $14,000, so we are only a little over a third of the way to having it paid for.

The donations have come from just 45 people as many donated twice, so far there are over 180 cars registered, and we expect 300 or more.

Thanks to all this will be a great Gift and a way to pay back the City for hosting us

We all aoppreciate this gesture!

You should know that the Ohio Cobra Club Staff has worked very hard since last years event to make this years event even better than any other DVSF or LCS event. We took your suggestions and incorporated them into creating an event tthat was what you wanted,,,,including the suggestion to Say Thanks to London in a significant way.

The guys have been meeting every two weeks since last year and now since we are getting close, we meet every week to plan and execute the details of the LCS events. Countless other hours , scouting hotels and venues and personal phone calls, emails, for solicitation, advertising, vendor coordination, facilities, and logistics planning and several who are putting in many hands -on hours in the build of the raffle car............all Volunteer Hours, and personal expense,,,,,,,,all to host one of the greatest Cobra get togethers ever! Remeber, we are a not for profit club, so all revenues from regsitration /raffle /donations /vendorsafter expenses go to CFF.

Our Goals are lofty. Our Goal is to hand CFF our Charity a check for $100,000. and to provide the City of London with a much needed Police Bike.

The only way we can meet these goals is to sell all of the raffle tickets for the car and solicit donations for the bike,,,,,and create an event that will draw 300 or so cars.

We all appreciated the slaps on the back, the handshakes and the Thank Yous, last year, But what we need now is for everyone to step up and support our Goal to CFF and The City of London.

There are only 35 days to the event

If you haven't done so yet, register for the LCS
If you haven't done so, donate to the Bike Fund Before 5/22!
If you haven't done so, buy a raffle ticket your chances of becoming a two Cobra family are really good!

Thanks for your support and donations
