May the Fourth Be With You. (May 4th is Star Wars Day in case you didn’t know.)

May the Sixth Be Chamber Day. (Hopefully you knew that and will excuse the bad pun.)

We made it past $83,000!!! Can we hit $85K . . . or more??? Here’s who’s propelled us since our last update a few days ago.

We start with a quartet of Silver-level donors and they are led by Rex Uber, longtime diver and longtime supporter of Chamber Day. He is joined by Jack Cook, whose donation is in memory of Ralph Ferrell Cook, USN (retired). Rounding out this group, we add in Robert Fenton and Larry Thompson as two more people who understand the critical need for our Chamber and the critical role divers play in keeping it well-funded.

Three days to go!!! The end is in sight and our boundaries are limitless. However, that second part is up to you. If you’re someone who waits until the last minute, it is fast approaching. We will cut everything off Wednesday at 6PM so we can finalize numbers and prepare for our LIVE STREAM that will run 7-9PM. So . . .

We’d love to add YOUR name to this list. The direct link to sign-up and donate is: https://dornsife.usc.edu/chamberday/signup-link/. Who’s next???
