PLEDGES
Start getting your pledges now for a better chance to win one of three (3) really great pledge prizes donated by Country Financial. There is a Generac 2900psi gas powered pressure washer, a Brute 2900psi gas powered pressure washer, and a Brute 3500watt gas powered generator. This will help anyone's cylinder index. All you need to do is print a Pledge Form from the tab on the left and round up all the donations you can from family, friends, coworkers, school or church people, or even other club members.
