2025 Adopt A Family - Preliminary thread

[FD]

As most of you should be aware, the Cork's are dealing with life at the moment, and are not available to spearhead the AAF this year.  The AAF, in my opinion, is too important to not continue.  Therefore, after discussing it with the boss, Dr. FD, we have decided to pick up the torch and run with it.  This certainly will not go as smooth our first time as previous years, but we are going to do our best to make it happen as smoothly as possible.

I will get to work on prize packages which include several custom FDx rods.  Raffle tickets have been ordered and will start to be sold next week, look for the AAF Official Thread to be posted DEC 9th.  This will be a 2 week sprint to the finish that ends on Dec 22.  I have already received donations from previous participants and will start tapping my lists from the last few years.

I have already found and vetted a local family that needs our help.  They were going to get my help anyway, now we can do it as the UB family!

What I need from you;

1.  Save your pennies.
2.  Talk to your friends.
3.  Tell everyone you know.
4.  Look for the official thread on Dec 9.

If you have any potential prize donors, let me know.

I'm here for it, been wondering if it was going to happen this year. Unfortunately, I didn't know about the Cork's but wish them better times, and thank you for picking this up!
