OH PS got almost 1000 miles on the bike and am loving every minute.

Work is going great too, got a great project coming up that I had to hire a structural engineer for the framing plan, very complicated addition on a lake front home. I'll post pictures when we start.

Hope all is well with you and your work.

[Peter C. Russell]

Al is doing great too.

[Marcel R. Cyr]

I have not yet heard for Nick on accepting the Award Pins.

Has anyone heard anything?

Marcel

[Marcel R. Cyr]

Nick has given me a verbal OK on the Service Pin.

He did not comment on our design nor how many I might need.

With the great help of the Vice Chairman, Bill Warner, this is what we came up with as a proto-type.

Attachment 20824

I would like to entertain any comments from the viewing Members at this time.

Thank you

Marcel

lol!!!

Funny you should mention that! That's been our discussion as well John...

Here's another option that may not hurt...

[Michael Larson]

Can I submit a design?

I propose a 5 year ribbon.

[David C. Macy]

Very Nice. I need one more year. Actually 8 months.

Congrats on all 5 year+ members.

Thanks David and I have subbmitted to a vendor to see if they could modify the Proto to something better, since they are in bussiness for that.

They other problem I face, is how many pins do I need?

How many Active Five Year Veterans are there?

Thanks

Looks like at least 17 as the poll would indicate. I would get at least 100. There are at least 77 members closing in on 5 years.

Sounds like 500 would be a safe number?

What I am afraid of is the minute all the inactive Members find out, they might start flooding the request, and I won't have enough pins and I will have to go back and request some money from Nick.

Just a thought.

Marcel,

Out of the 6,059 members listed on the featured inspector page, including the four members who joined today, May 1st, 2008, there are 156 members who rate the 5 year pin as of tomorrow, May 2nd, 2008.

At the end of 2008, there will be another 221 members who rate the 5 year pin, (if they all (as of today) make it that far).

At the end of 2009, there will be an additional 697 members who rate the 5 year pin, (if they all (as of today) make it that far).

At the end of 2010, there will be an additional 1,034 members who rate the 5 year pin, (if they all (as of today) make it that far).

Why think in small quantities. Order at least 1,000 of the pins.

Perhaps y'all better start thinking of 10 year pins by then too!

If you e-mail me at erby@b4uclose.com, I'll send you the Excel spreadsheet sorted by member number.

Thanks for coordinating this thing.

Hey Erby, thanks for taking the time to do that.

I am at work right now, but if you want, send it to my e-mail address.

mcyrhamm@verizon.net

Again, thank you.

I will most likely do the 1000.

This is the cost I received from a Vendor

Qty. 500 - $ 1.40 each + Free Mold (Total Cost: $ 700.00)

Qty. 1,000 - $ 1.19 each + Free Mold (Total Cost: $ 1,190.00)


I'll propably need Nick's final blessing on this, but I'll persue it. ha. ha.

Thanks

Marcel

[Erby Crofutt]

Keeps coming back rejected. Maybe it's that the file size is 2 megabyte.

Any ideas

[Henry Valenzano, CMI]

you can turn it in to a zipp file that will shrink it.
