Annual NAMM Dinner Shortfall Fund

Donation protected

I set up this fund to help reimburse my friend Jim Watson because sadly an unsual number of scofflaws must have attended our annual MOTU-MAC/MOTUnation NAMM dinner this year and either skipped out on their bill entirely, or grossly underpaid their share of the bill.  

The tab came to roughly $1700 and $1100 was collected as people left the restaurant but some new people skipped out or weren't entirely honest about their fair share of the tab.   Jim was stuck with making up the $600 shortfall out of his own pocket.  These shortfalls happen EVERY year, but this one was the worst ever.

If you attended this dinner and aren't sure you paid enough, or you left and somehow assumed it was "free" and didn't pay or forgot to pay, please make it right and donate something.  This was the 19th annual NAMM dinner we have held and to be honest, if this sort of thing happens again, we may have to cancel this event or  devise some strategy (selling tickets, limited menu, etc) to make sure this doesn't happen again.

If you DID attend this dinner and kicked in enough, or even if you did NOT attend,  perhaps consider contributing a few bucks so we can continue this tradition in the future and Jim doesn't get stuck making up this $600 shortfall.  It's not right.  Thanks!
