Team UZB Uneven Bars Fundraiser!
|
|
| 2/19/00
- After a long and somewhat
hellacious journey, the Spieth Anderson uneven bars donated by
the Fan Club and contributors were finally received by
Team UZB on February 14, 2000. Once again, the Team UZB Fan Club
Internationale would like to express extreme gratitude to those
who participated in the fundraiser. |
|
| 12/13/99 - The Team UZB Fan Club Internationale
has proceeding with the ordering of the Spieth Anderson uneven
bars. Spieth Anderson representative Lynn Meyer has obtained a
new shipping quote that is $71.00 less than the initial quote
of $719.00. The Fund Drive Status chart has now been recalculated
to reflect this new shipping charge.
The
Team UZB Fan Club Internationale and Team UZB would like to
thank everyone who donated in the UB Fund Drive! Your particiaption
is greatly appreciated!

- Great news! Spieth Anderson sales representative
Lynn Meyer has reduced the price of the uneven bars by $190.00,
making the total cost plus shipping $2,444.00. Also, a tremendously
generous donation by Susan Tyler has provided such a great boost
to the fund drive that we shall be able to go ahead and purchase
the bars very very soon! Stay tuned for photos of our meeting
with Team UZB in China as we presented them with the news of our
fundraising efforts. Keep the donations coming, and thanks for
all your support! |

| 8/27/99
- The
Team UZB Fan Club Internationale is trying to raise funds and
seeking donations to buy a new set of uneven bars for the gymnasium
at the Uzbekistan National Training Centre in Tashkent .
Presently,
the only set of uneven bars that they have are in severely dilapidated
and potentially dangerous condition. To see more and read about
the overall conditions at the training center, visit the 'Help
Team UZB' section of this website. There is also a small
article by John Crumlish on page 26 of the August/September
1999 issue of International Gymnast magazine further detailing
the financial and training woes of Team UZB.
Our
target is a set of Spieth Anderson Superwide Uneven Bars(see
below). Spieth Anderson representative Lynn Meyer has given
us a quote of $1,920 + $714 for shipping to UZB for a total
of $2634.00. Unfortunately, US donations made to this drive
are not tax deductible, but any amount would help.
|
|
|
This
is our objective!
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Team
UZB could also use smaller items like chalk, leotards, etc.
These items will be gladly accepted by the Team UZB Fan Club
to be presented to Team UZB in China during the World Championships.
If
you would like to donate funds to the Team UZB Fan Club Internationale
towards the acquisition of the uneven bars, please send a check
