Within a day or so, you will all receive an initial message from our Sponsor group, WP.Org, announcing the beginning of our next semi-annual Fund-Raiser. A number of you have asked over the past months how we manage to offer so many valuable services and such great support to fellow parents on the USNA-Net Listservers and our USNA-Net Web Site. We do it entirely through voluntary donations. Let me assure you all of one thing, up front... Membership in our USNA-Net Lists and use of our Web Site and its Archives, Chat Room and Classifieds IS AND ALWAYS WILL BE FREE to Parents and Friends of USNA. Sandi and I, along with a few others (behind the scenes), make this thing work on a strictly VOLUNTEER basis. (No USNA-Net Moderator or Webmaster is compensated in any way for their time or service.) There are however some costs associated with the operation such as equipment (our servers in Austin TX), major Internet access (we access the Internet via a fractional T-1 line) plus operating expenses (utilities, software, etc.). We don't do this alone. Here's how it all works... About 7 years ago a West Point Cadet was involved in an auto accident just weeks before he was due to be commissioned. He recovered well but his injuries prohibited his Commissioning. While he graduated, he was released from service and sent home. He began an on-line service to assist his fellow West Point Grads strictly in gratitude for all that USMA had done for him. That humble, volunteer beginning grew into WP.Org, a non-profit organization serving over 17,000 USMA grads, 1,700 Families of USMA Cadets and recently, our USNA Parents Network which has grown to 1,500 Families of USNA Midshipmen. Shortly after USNA Parents were invited to join USNA-Net, Sandi and I were asked to Moderate the Navy side of this operation since the fledgling list had a USMA father as its Moderator and he admittedly knew little of the Naval Academy and the needs of Navy Parents. When we took over in January of 1999 there were only 76 names on our list of Navy Parents. Today, we number 1,500 USNA families and are still growing. We could not have accomplished any of this if it were not for the generosity and support of WP.Org. They have provided free hosting for our HUGE USNA-Net web site without regard for its size or the level of activity. Every day almost 300 of you go to that site for something or other. On days when we've posted a new group of pictures or something else of high interest, we've had over 1,000 visit in 24 hours. Currently the hit counter is approaching 136,000 individual visits to the site since it was installed 22 months ago. That's a whole lot of looking by our members. In that same time period we've seen over 10,000 email messages be exchanged via our lists between members and that doesn't count the responses that are sent privately to members when they have a question or problem, only those posted to our lists. We have been able to assist families through the serious and the silly things that are involved in USNA Parenting from "What do I pack for I-day?" or "How do I handle my Mids depression or desire to quit?" to "Does anyone know what a Yard Dog is?" We have been able to be there for each other because of this wonderful and selfless organization. They actually ask nothing in return. Membership in our Lists is FREE, just like watching Public Television. If you send in a donation, you get to watch all of the excellent programming. If you don't donate, you STILL GET TO WATCH ! What could be better? Beginning again in a few days, we will be asking those of you that can send in a donation to do so. If your purse strings are a little tight right now, we understand. We don't ask for much... Whatever you can afford. Last spring the average donation was $33 per donor and we had 254 families send something in to help defray our costs. At that time we had only 793 Families on our lists in total. Basically, 1 in 3 families donated something. Some sent only $10 while one '03 parent sent in $250. Who gives what, is private (even Sandi and I do NOT know who gives and how much.). All we see are the number of donors and the total amount donated by our group. All we care about is that our group does its part to support our benefactor organization, WP.Org. As soon as our fund-raiser is launched, you will be given details of how you can donate "on-line" or via US Mail. Until then, I'm sure that we can count on all of you to support us in kind for the support you have all received over the past months or years.

I won't go on and on about it but there are a few details that you all need to know. USNA-Net is a volunteer organization using computers and telecommunications equipment supplied to us through the generosity of WP.Org. While Sandi and I do not receive any compensation for the many hours we put into the USNA-Net web site and Moderating the Lists, there are real costs associated with operating the hardware that makes it all happen. Membership in any of our lists is like Public Television... If you send in a donation you get to participate in the finest of programming available on TV. If you don't donate, you STILL GET TO WATCH. You just feel better about the whole experience. Most of you have expressed your gratitude to Sandi or me for all that our lists have meant to you over the past months or years. And who can forget the help we al got through Plebe Summer? Now it's time to show that gratitude by sending whatever you can spare to support our expenses. During our last drive about 1 in 3 members sent in a donation. The average was about $33 per donor for a total of $8,420.00 from 254 donors out of about 750 members. This time we have almost 1,500 members in our group. I would hope that we can do even better this time, especially with all of the new '04 parents on board. Not that I want to make this into a competition but last January, our Navy '03 Parents donated $4,405 to Army '03 Parents' donation of $4,501. Almost too close to call. (And I might add, these two groups were first and second of all groups to donate.) I'd really like to see our average donation come up a bit as well as getting a few more of you to participate. Only you know if our service is worth $10 a month. ($60 for six months.) A FEW WORDS ON ON-LINE DONATING... First, our SECURE server is just that. You need not worry that the information will ever be intercepted or shared with others. It is all encrypted and a whole lot more secure than handing your credit card to the waiter at the local bistro. If you choose to use the On-Line Secure Web Site to donate, please review the information on our USNA-Net Web Site about which boxes to check so that YOUR DONATION IS PROPERLY CREDITED TO USNA-NET. You must check NAVY and then you should scroll down to indicate your Mid's Graduation Year. All of this is graphically illustrated with a sample form on the "INFO" page on donating. If you want to send in a check, the address is also on the INFO page. Just make sure that you write NAVY PARENT CLASS OF 'XX in the memo line of the check. To review all of this information, visit our web site at www.navy-usna.org and click on the INFO or DONATE icons in the middle of the main page. If you have any questions, write to me before you send in your donation. I'll be glad to explain anything and help you through the process. Let's show everyone that we support USNA-Net and all that it does for its members.

Mike has been hard at work. We have NOT fixed the duplication problem...please bear with us on this. Our WP-Org gurus are working on it and we will have it fixed as soon as we possibly can. The hard work has been on a new (and I think, exciting) feature we have JUST added to your USNA-Net website. (www.navy-usna.org) As you may know, there are many sites that you can find on the World Wide Web that will send free postcards and greeting cards via email. Well, now USNA-Net has its own free postcards that you can send to anyone you know who has an email address. And the really great part is that the images that you can choose from are nearly ALL USNA, USN, and USMC images or graphics!! Some of these images are taken from our own Photo Gallery! The three graphic images are my own work. Of the six general images, two - the moon and the sunrise - were taken by Mike, the sunrise photo from our bedroom window! I spent the better part of two days searching out great Naval Academy, Navy, and Marine Corps images and adapting them for postcard use. Mike did all the coding work. There are some really terrific photos included here, and I know as soon as you take a look, you will feel compelled to send someone, ANYONE, a postcard!! You can send one of 36 images and a note, just like a real postcard. It is really easy to do, and you will receive an acknowledgment as soon as the recipient opens the email postcard, so you will know that they got it! Mike and I have "our" mission - to keep improving the USNA-Net website...to add features and conveniences for you...so that you are happy with this service. We love doing this, and welcome any suggestions! I will add just 8 words, here..."Please remember to contribute to our fund drive!" To access the new Postcard feature, go to the website: www.navy-usna.org and click onto "Postcards" about 3/4 of the way down the list of menu items on the left. Enjoy this new feature and let us know what you think of it!

The three graphic images are my own work. Of the six general images, two - the moon and the sunrise - were taken by Mike, the sunrise photo from our bedroom window! I spent the better part of two days searching out great Naval Academy, Navy, and Marine Corps images and adapting them for postcard use. Mike did all the coding work. There are some really terrific photos included here, and I know as soon as you take a look, you will feel compelled to send someone, ANYONE, a postcard!! You can send one of 36 images and a note, just like a real postcard. It is really easy to do, and you will receive an acknowledgment as soon as the recipient opens the email postcard, so you will know that they got it! Mike and I have "our" mission - to keep improving the USNA-Net website...to add features and conveniences for you...so that you are happy with this service. We love doing this, and welcome any suggestions! I will add just 8 words, here..."Please remember to contribute to our fund drive!" To access the new Postcard feature, go to the website: www.navy-usna.org and click onto "Postcards" about 3/4 of the way down the list of menu items on the left. Enjoy this new feature and let us know what you think of it!

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Precedence: bulk To all... Sandi has added even more great images to our Postcard Service. Check them out on our Web Site at www.navy-usna.org - Click on "Postcards" in the Main Menu on the left. It's obvious that our parents like this service since we've had 830 individual visits to that page since we put it up at 2:00 PM, yesterday. Now there are 48 different postcards to send to friends and family. We're glad you enjoy the service. We've heard from quite a few members about it and it's all been great feedback. On another note, we've added a copy of the current FULCRUM to the web site. The Fulcrum is a complete schedule of all Off-Campus Activities by our Mids. It includes all Sports events plus everything from the Latin Studies Club Meeting to the Men's Glee Club Schedule. You can access it from the pop-up window that opens automatically when you go to our Web Site (www.navy-usna.org). Simply click on the "Click Here" link in the pop-up window. Once the schedule opens, you will find the information grouped into six geographical regions: Northeast, MidAtlantic, Southeast, Central, SouthCentral and West, so that you might easily find activities near your home town. To see the different regions, click on the "Region Tabs" at that bottom of the schedule. The Fulcrum was provided to us by Elizabeth Peltosalo of the Alumni Association who received her copy from the Public Affairs Office (PAO). We converted it from an Excel (.xls) file to a web format so that it could be readily referenced by our members. It will remain in place for the balance of the month and be replaced as soon as we obtain the November issue. Hope you all enjoy the newest features.

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Precedence: bulk Dear Navy Friends, As most of you know, our Fall Fund Drive is now underway. We need your continued generosity to offset the operating expenses involved in keeping our Parents' Support Network on-line, 24/7/365. While our efforts as Moderators and Webmasters for USNA-Net are strictly voluntary, USNA-Net and its support organization, WP.Org, do have real, ongoing expenses for equipment and telecommunications costs. While we are only 1,500 families and a small part of the total organization for which these funds are being raised, only you know the true value of the service that USNA-Net provides to our members. Each of you has been helped enormously in the past months. Surely that is worthy of a contribution to insure our continued ability to provide the support, advice and information that you have received as a member. Please take a moment today (right now, in fact) to go to our web site and contribute on-line or write a check. We don't ask for much (whatever you feel you can afford) but we ask that you send your donation in as soon as possible. The sooner we reach our goal - the quicker this fund drive will end. Last spring, ONE of every THREE Navy Parents sent in something. So far this time, our participation is way behind that level. We really need you to act now and not wait. It's not as if you can't be a member if you don't contribute. You can. We have always said that membership in USNA-Net is free. It is. But we rely upon the generosity of that very same membership to keep this service alive and vibrant, serving all members regardless of whether or not a donation was received. Since the last fund drive, your contributions have enabled us to add the Chat Room, The Classified Ads, many, many photographs, the USNA-Net Wallpaper, the Archive and Web Site Search Engines, and most recently, the Electronic USNA-Net Postcards. (We know you like the postcards because over 500 of them have already been sent in just five days with 1,950 individual visits to the new page being recorded.) With so much web site content and so much advice and support being offered daily, think how much better you will feel when the next appeal message comes through in a few days, asking for a donation and you can sit back, knowing that you've already done your part, that your donation is already doing good for yourself and all of the other members of USNA-Net. Our unofficial motto has always been "Parents Helping Parents." Let's all "help" to keep it that simple. To donate, visit our Web Site at www.navy-usna.org and click on the blue "INFO" or "DONATE" icons on in the middle of the main page. OR Mail a check (payable to WP.Org, Inc.) to... West-Point.Org Inc. PO Box 2108 Abingdon VA 24212-2108 Please Indicate "NAVY PARENT - CLASS OF 'XX" on your Check. (For those that are members but not parents, please make sure you indicate "NAVY" on the check to insure your donation is credited to USNA-Net.) Thanks for YOUR support.

There may be a few still duplicates in the pipeline for some of you but in the next few hours, they should all be delivered. Postcards... So far 2,055 visits have been made to the page since Monday with 679 cards being sent to someone. Looks like our members really like this new feature. Please note that postcard page is open to anyone who visits our Web Site and is NOT a members only feature. If you want to tell your friends or your Mids about it, go ahead. We love knowing that it is so popular and so very useful to all of you. Sandi says that she will be putting up some additional images tomorrow morning. Take a look later tomorrow. Fund Drive...

So far, only 84 out of over 1,500 Navy Parents have taken the time to donate to our Fall Fund-raiser. After three weeks this is very disappointing. While those 84 generous members have donated a total of $4,900 we are way behind our goal. Last time, we collected $8,420.00 from 254 donors when we had only 850 members. (Almost 1 in 3 members sent in something.) Now, we're almost TWICE that total membership but have heard from only 84 of you so far !!! That's just short of 1 in 20 members who have taken the time to donate. While I know that the Holidays are coming up and some of your are reluctant to donate, we really do need your help and support. Please... If you've put off donating for whatever reason, send in your support today. Many of you are new but the return on this investment is worth many times the equivalent of just $8 or $10 dollars per month for six months. Please act now. Please. We are an all volunteer group on the Navy Side of this organization but we still incur expenses for telecommunications equipment and such. Without your support to cover our day to day operating expenses, USNA-Net will not be around for the next class of parents. That's the long and short of it. We will survive, ONLY if you help.
