Well done all new Bears and Bearettes who have donated, great to see a high number of new incoming members.

As always a great turnout from the usual suspects on the board, I still don't class myself there yet, I am only three years in I think! No doubt GB will tell me two years and I owe him a years fees.....

Doesn't matter what you think - I'm the one with the accounts, and you are most definitely in the there class, and have been for quite a while. :thumbup:

So much so that your Loyal Fund Status earned you a significant wee unseen favour recently - but I never told you about that. :P

Aye we had a good wee spurt there. (tu)

It's the hours of tumbleweed between the spurts that are the real challenge though. :D

Good News:

I've just spoken to Rangers Hospitality, and they've informed me that this season, they will be reopening the Symon Suite (Disabled Hospitality).

It was closed last season, and so we had to resort to the more expensive Argyle Suite for our wheelchair-using Veterans.

The seats are cheaper in the Symon Suite (£65) than in the Argyle Suite (£105), and the Symon Suite is better set up to accommodate wheelchairs. :thumbup:

So for example:

£410 = 4 Argyle Hospitality Seats

£390 = 6 Symon Hospitality Seats

Here are some Veterans' in the Symon Suite from 2 seasons ago...

They look comfortable enough there. (tu)

It was closed last season, and so we had to resort to the more expensive Argyle Suite for our wheelchair-using Veterans.

The seats are 40% cheaper :thumbup: in the Symon Suite (£70) than in the Argyle Suite (£115), and the Symon Suite is better set up to accommodate wheelchairs. :thumbup:

So for example:

£410 = 4 Argyle Hospitality Seats

£420 = 6 Symon Hospitality Seats

It's good the club do things like this so you can make our 'blue pound' go further (tu)

Sorry been busy i'll chuck in £30 quid tonight mate

We actually need people to be late!

As long as there are Loyal Fund Members still unpledged, then I know it's too soon to close the fundraiser, and in the meantime we usually get some new members. (tu)

- That’s a lot of threads! :pipe:

The RangersMedia Erskine Rangers Recreation Fund (aka The Fund) is a voluntary fundraising group funded by RM Member donations (and other occasional fundraising activities). A donation of £5 or more gains you membership of the Fund’s Hall of Fame, which is by far the most respectable list around these parts - but more importantly, it helps us help our Veterans, and our Club.

The money raised is spent as follows:

  • Providing Rangers FC Products and Services to Residents of 4 Erskine Care Homes (eg: Season Tickets, Match Tickets, Hospitality Tickets, Stadium Tours, Argyle Restaurant Lunches, Rangers TV, Rangers Match Programmes)
  • Providing non-Rangers-related Recreational Treats for the Residents of 4 Erskine Homes (eg: Boat Trips, Restaurant Lunches, Christmas Party Donations, Palace Visits, D-Day Whisky Miniatures)
  • Supporting The Rangers Family - Rangers Development Fund, Rangers Charity Foundation, Rangers Ladies, Rangers Football In The Community.

(we also support Residents of Hollybush House Hospital (Combat Stress) along the same lines as the Erskine Homes)

The Fund has no running costs – (except the 6% PayPal fee charged by PayPal on all donations :( ). So every penny donated is properly spent and properly accounted for. (tu)

With over £25,000 raised to date (and spent very wisely!), we are now enthusiastically embarking on our 4th Season of Supporting Erskine Veterans and Rangers FC. It promises to be our most successful season so far - and that’s why we’d really like you to join us. :thumbup:

We launched this season’s new membership a few days ago, and the response from members has been awesome - We already have over 130 New Members before a ball is even kicked.

But the more members we have, the more we can achieve, so please join us. It's easy.

To Support our Activities, and Join our Hall of Fame, simply donate £5 or more to the Fund (and PM me).

  • If money is in short supply, that's all we need from you. (tu)
  • If even £5 is too much, not a problem - PM me for a full concession - there are other ways to help apart from money! :pipe:
  • If you earn enough to donate more than £5, then please feel free to donate as you see fit. (tu)
  • If you're on holiday, offshore, waiting for pay day etc, then PM me and I'll add you to the Pledged List - then you can donate whenever is good for you.
