RE: Huskies Invest - Week of Giving (Oct 24-28)
Who would have thought raising a million dollars would attract so many negative comments.

RE: Huskies Invest - Week of Giving (Oct 24-28)
Next year's goal should be $2 million and 1,000 donors over a one month period. Not sure why they make Huskies Invest only last 5 days. They seem to limit themselves in $$ amount and time to donate.

Not necessarily negative.
Factual, which is required to fathom this regime.
Anyway, here's one for you ...
Unrestricted donations $537,925
+
Basketball locker rooms $56,200
+
Softball dugout $50,600
+
Walt & Janice Owens Park (baseball stadium) $66,100
=
$710,825
Just playing, but ... think some of these projects can actually get done?

Spin it however you want but clearly negative from my viewpoint.

Spin? A missed meaning, but call it what you want. Look at the items I selected. I want something to get done. Something positive that donors can see and appreciate. Better facilities for some of our teams is ideal. Especially since some critics seem always to be ragging on facilities (sometimes including me). Then I'd be happy to help make Huskies Invest even bigger next year.

I heard they sent the card to the guy that sits in your Convo Center seat first.
