Thanks for the interest! We actually have a "system" already set up. If you want to be added, please PM either myself or flyingcrayons with your email. If it easier you can also email mercuryreminders(at)gmail(dot)com. Please include your forum name in the email. Thanks again!

But if you are local to the Detroit area, Team 226 encourages you to stop by and buy a book, hear a story, or have a coffee. Hope to see you there!

I completely understand. We all have the same goal: Raise funds for the program we love. I wish you best of luck!

To be a little more specific the funds are going towards the purchase of new batteries and the creation of a battery tower. At our last two off-seasons our batteries started to show their 3 year age. We're hoping to be able to replace those older batteries and maybe even add more to the line up. In addition, the battery tower was an inspiration from many teams. We loved the efficiency and security so much that we wanted to make one for ourselves.


Thanks for all the views and posts!
