Match Report Tuesday 23rd

Big thanks to Michael, Dee, Dave, Julian, Geoff, John, Steven, Judith, Peter, Cheryl and Trish.

A very good night, 12 volunteers and 32 renewals. And a lot of these sign ups were lapsed members, that hadn't signed up last year, but have now signed up for 2013, so great work and thanks to all.

There was even a brand new Baby Dee member signed up by her Mum (before her Tiger Dad was able to), whose grandfather played for the Demons in the 60's, and got the 31 after Barassi left (info thanks to Tom from the Membership Dept and Demon Wiki, definitely not my knowledge / memory).

You are all much better people than I.

Thankyou.

To TSFKA. You dont have to actually do the phoning to help here. Just shoot me your email & I will include you in "Match Reports'.

One never knows who u will run into, down the track, that u might refer as a future volunteer.

Welcome all supporting parties to this process as we make this D2D grow into a valued contributor to the clubs growth. .

[email protected] Geoff/19

Volunteer results to 24th April are:

-Total volunteer memberships sold 448

-Total revenue from calls made by volunteers = $61,453.27

-4,983 calls have been made over 14 nights

-30 Volunteers have come in over this time.

Wonder what can we achieve by the 2nd week in June cut off???

1000 memberships .... probably too hard by early June, but ??

$100.000 revenue ........we should slip past that within May. Maybe $130.000

10.000 calls ................. would require the max of 15 volunteers each night. Possible??

Monday 29th had 11 volunteers Tx to Trish, Cheryl, Michael, Peter 1st, Judy, Peter 2nd (first nighter),John, Dave, Tim & Geoff D.

We took on the lapsed members of 2011 & before & got 33 sign ups & a $200 raffle ticket. Tx Deb.

Action stations again Tuesday night & ongoing Mon/Tuesdays through May. All hands welcome.

*** PS Some volunteers are tipping in $20 each to buy a group raffle ticket.
See separate thread.

Monday & Tuesday confirmed for the coming week, after we take car of the Suns.

See above for details & my contact.

*** If u want to become involved in a club help group - but phone campaigning does not suit.

The following separate group is run by Sarah & they have come together to try & find ways to strengthen the club.

Just a reminder about the 2 June event. It is gaining traction.

Meeting @ 1.30pm at the Transport Bar {Fed Sq] prior to the game and sitting in Bay M54 afterwards..

Want more info. [email protected]

_{Six volunteers & ten results (2011 lapsed members who are now back).}

_{Tx to the 'cold bravers' of Liz, Pete, Cheryl, Trish & Sarah.}

_{We are going to do tonight (Tues 21st) & conclude for the year after Mon/Tues next week.}

_{If u can make it for any/all of these last 3 sessions PLEASE assist. Tx Geoff/19}

MATCH REPORT Tuesday May 21^st

Bigger than expected turn out Tx to Trish, Stephen, Geoff D., Dee, Catherine, Sarah, Peter, Julian & a new combatant in Trisha (or is it Tricia).

A great result with 19 sign ups of 2011 lapsed members, plus a few more MCC affiliates – who have been terrific.

The 33.000 target is going to be super tough but the flame still flickers.

Only Monday & Tuesday of next week left for the year & a supreme effort from us collectively might add another 50+ to the tally.

Last chance. Be there if u can. Geoff/19

Monday 27/5 & 8 volunteers including Dee, Daniel, Peter, Trish, Michael M., Sarah & Geoff D.

Signed up 23 to my amazement.

The MCC/MFC affiliation members are very generous considering the time of year & prevailing winds.

Tomorrow (Tuesday) is the last night of this project. Great if we can make it a big one.

Geoff/19

12 yes twelve volunteers turned up tonight & we complete all the clubs databasing at 7.30pm. What timing.

And would u believe 26 MCC affiliate renewals at this late stage of the year.

Tx to Steve G, Steve M., Geoff D., Peter, Daniel, Catherine, Julian, Sarah, Cheryl, Danielle & Trish. We ticked over the 600 mark of D2D sign ups at 6.20pm tonight. Trish wrote up that one.
(Apologies came in in from Dave & Michael M - families before club - Tx for trying)

Peter Jackson was in again & expressed thanks to all 34 volunteers who attend this year.

It goes with out saying that volunteering D2D is not an easy ask right now, but the success of our group has put a big smile over the gloom that pervades the club.

We are becoming a strongly bonded group & the club will now be counting on us in to the future. Fantastic!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.

Phoning program is over for the season. We are trying a couple of different things like the red cap day.

Updates on future opportunities to help will follow.

If you want to send me u email** I will advise you of our next steps. [email protected] Geoff/19 ** Privacy assured.

Our D2D group is continuing to evolve & expand.

D2D.net.au is is now bricks & mortar & awaiting a roof, carpet & furnishing. Have a peek please.

There is also an ex-players & supporters 'rejuvenation' golf day proposed for later in the year at a major Melbourne golf club.

If you are interested in details send me an email to [email protected] or via D2D.net.au & we will keep you informed.

The membership dept is asking for one evenings assistance on July 30th 5.30 - 8pm.

The project is to call existing members & check their emails & contacts.

If you can assist plse advise at '[email protected]'.

No asking for $$$$s or other commitment. Simply a chat Demon@Demon.

We are trying to raise 30 volunteers.

Tx to all D2D volunteers that made it last night & those that tried to be there.

25 volunteers & we exceeded the target set for the night.

Several hundred members that agreed to take the club's emails & strengthen our sponsorship value.

Great work team.
