I think you would all agree this board has been the best thing to come to armwrestling since the movie "Over the Top"and I think it is even bigger for us armwrestlers on an individual basis.It made the Can Ams break all time participation records. The hype, the trash talking, and the comradery all happend here. So why then is the courator of this board stllll getting the job done through dial up and an old digital camera.Kurt has given his heart and soul to this board lets show him how much this means to all of us.I made Kurt agree not to deleat this post before he found out what it was about at the Can ams.So dont forget your promise Kurt.I am starting this post donating $100.to help Kurts efforts. What is this board worth to you?I understand not all of us have a lot of money but the 5 or $10 you spend at the cofee shop can go in a envalope and pay part of a months cablel fees.so when you donate think how much more exciting armwrestling has become with this board to get the latest news and Facts on armwrestling.Thankyou for taking the time to read this post and thankyou Kurt for this Board.
P.S. I will get an adress A.S.A.P to send donations.

Through this board I have met many friends, learned a great deal about Armwrestling, and has kept my interest with literally no table time yet.
I can't say enough about how great this board is.

Dan, I just want to thank you again for your very generous donation. I have never asked for any kind of contribution for the work I do on this board, as I do it to promote our great sport. Yes, I did promise Dan I would not delete this topic, but for the record, I am not really quite comfortable on accepting any donations! If you must, keep them small.
I am in the process of getting a video forum on this board, and any donations will go towards web space and bandwidth for these videos.
If you must, my mailing address (at work) is:
Kurt Howgate
849 Main Street, Suite 200
Sanford, ME 04073
Again...thanks!

Dan, a very good idea you had!  I cannot imagine the time let alone the expense of maintaining this website. Good for you for suggesting the donations. Kurt, do you have a paypal account that we could send money through? (for those of us who have a problem getting the envelope to the post office!) Let us know the email address to use if you do have one. And GREAT JOB on the board/website!  Elaine |

I cannot believe how quickly threads get buried on this board! I didn't want this thread to get buried and then you all forget about helping Kurt out with the upkeep... Kurt... do you have a paypal account? Please let me know! I prefer to send you some $ that way... it's quicker and I don't forget!  Thanks for the good work! Elaine |

I will bring my money next weekend when we train. That is if you are ready for a real workout.... Just kidding my friend, but I am pumped to train. After watching the Can-Ams, this past weekend, I am just waiting for out training.
