[From Larry Schlanser]

Dear West Point Parents, Family, and Friends:

We are quickly closing in on 70% of the Fund Drive 9 goal. 
Sincere thanks to all of you who have donated. If you are
considering making a contribution, now is the time to do it, so we
can end FD9 soon.

For the past two years, I have had the honor of being the
moderator of Plebe-Net and the USMA2003 forum, which served as
Plebe-net for that class. The thanks I have received from many
parents indicate to me how much you value the information provided
by WPP-NET, Parent-Forum, and Plebe-Net. I have learned first
hand how the dialog on these forums has answered your questions,
kept you informed and up-to-date, saved you money, and often made
your life more enjoyable. Please show your appreciation by making
a donation to FD9.

To our Cadet Candidate parents: you have the most to gain from
WP-ORG's parent forums. With your support they will be here for
the four years that your cadet is at West Point...giving you
guidance, answering your questions, and helping you through
occasional tough times. We have the right group of people
subscribed to these forums. They have the answers to almost any
question you will have. The other day I asked a question on
Parent-Forum and I continue to be amazed at the responses that I
got, even though I have been a member for almost four years.

Please donate today to help put FD9 over the top. How much you
donate is a personal decision, but I ask that you please consider
the value that you have received over the last six months and
donate accordingly. The earlier we reach our goal, the sooner
this fund drive will end. I've already made my donation. It's
easy to make yours.

You can donate on-line by credit card at WP-ORG's secure site:

            <https://www-secure.west-point.org/wporg/donate/>

Remember to specify PARENT--even if you are a Grandparent, other
family member, or belong to us for some other reason--and indicate
class year if appropriate. You can also click on the word
"budget" in the right-hand column to see exactly how our donations
will be spent during the next six months.

If you prefer to make your donation using a check, please make it
payable to "WP-ORG", indicate "Parent" and class year in the memo
part of the check, and mail to:

            WP-ORG
            P.O. Box 2108
            Abingdon, VA 24212-2108

Your donation is 100% tax deductible because WP-ORG is now
recognized by the IRS as a 501(c)(3) organization.

Every day, WP-ORG serves us, the Long Gray Line, and West Point. 
Your support makes WP-ORG possible.

Thank you for your generosity.
