Four weeks out, siren installed and fundraising update...

With just over four weeks to go until the 2017 Camp Quality esCarpade, Damian is continuing to make slow and steady progress on getting Retro Rock-It ready to go...

Today's job was to install the noisemaker/siren...

First up, some gratuitous photos for the fans!!


Needs some more sponsor stickers...  and maybe some theming!!  Damian is currently chasing up a couple of leads on theming - hopefully there will be something other than safety lights to show at some point!!


There's already one speaker installed... but there's plenty of room for a second one!!


So pretty!!  Once this installation was completed, the noise maker (in the form of the Coga PA system removed from Booger Mobile) was up and running!!


Next up, Damian was going to contemplate installing an LED light bar on the front... Unfortunately, the kit that he purchased came with a hard on/off switch (not one controlled by the high beam), so it will require a couple of minor modifications prior to installation...  Good thing Damian is reasonably handy with a wire crimping tool!!

On the fundraising front, thanks to a few recent donations courtesy of Adam making a call for donations at his work, the 2017 fundraising total stands at...

 
$4349

Just $651 short of the minimum fundraising total required of $5000!!  With a couple of pledges outstanding, Damian and Adam should reach the minimum required before esCarpade... however, it would be nice to raise more than the bare minimum, so if you are thinking about donating and haven't yet, now's your chance!!  Click the bright yellow "DONATE NOW" button up on the top right hand side of the home page of this blog to be taken to the secure donation page through Everyday Hero.
