We are less than 48 hours away from Chamber Day and we are a mere $500 short of our hoped-for $20,000 goal in the Michael Kane Challenge.
WHO WILL PUT US OVER THE TOP????
If you are a store, club, or individual who has thought about donating (or even ones who have said, "I'll get back to you") now is the time. We desperately need YOUR donation if we're to reach our goal.
Also remember that ALL the funds raised here go to support the USC Catalina Hyperbaric Chamber, a crucial safety net for all those who dive Southern California waters. Chamber Day represents the largest single source of outside funding for our Chamber so this is a very important time.
You can contribute either with a phone call to 310/652-4990 or an e-mail reply to this address.
Now . . . who's gonna join these folks to put us over $20,000?????????
