This topic is one that is very close to my heart. On June 9, 2001 i lost my best friend, Mary Teubner to intestinal cancer. She had a long battle and unfortunatley the disease won. At that point i made the decision to dedicate my free time and somewhat my career to helping find a cure for this horrible disease. I renamed the regional that i run the Mary Teubner Memorial Open and we began raising money for charity through sponsors, 50/50 drawings, raffles, pro-ams, merchandise sales and many other entities. Over the last 4 years we've raised over $45,000.00 for charity in Mary's name ( including $5000.00 that went to the American Red Cross for Hurricane Katrina victims ).
Everything that we sell on my website, including : autographed bowling balls, autographed shirts, autographed photos and "4 the fight" bracelets generates money for the charity. 100% of all monies are donated to Cancer research centers in Marys name.
We have started a fan club called Club 300. Again, 100% of all money raised through the fan club will be going to charity. The cost of the fan club membership is $18.95 for the first year, and the renewal fee is $7.95 per year after that. There is a $6.00 shipping and handling fee within the United States. Anything oversees will have to be done on a case by case basis. Your fan club membership gets you the following:
JeffCarterbowling.com t-shirt
Club300 membership certificate
Club300 membership card
Autographed Photo
Discounts on JeffCarterbowling.com services ( including online coaching - when we get it up and running )
Discounts on JeffCarterbowling.com Arsenal Assembly ( again, when its available )
Discounts on JeffCarterbowling.com merchandise
Members will receive special recognition on our "Honor Roll"
Members will be eligible for monthly prizes ( including Storm bowling balls, bags and other items )
You can pay though PayPal on the website or you can send me a cashiers check/money order/personal check. Items will be shipped within 4-6 weeks, depending on where we are on Tour. Im asking all of you that are fans of bowling to consider helping us "Strikeout against Cancer". We can use everybodys help in finding a cure for this terrible disease, so i'm asking all of the members on this site to please take the time to sign up for Club300
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me. I look forward to hearing from many of you for the first time and from all of those who i have helped through this site. If you arent able to purchase the fan club, please consider buying a bracelet or a photo. Every little bit helps in our fight
Also just a side note for those of you that dont know, we are continually making updates to our website. Journal logs are being posted several times a week, Dennis keeps a running total of game scores during rounds, and we are constantly updating Arsenal photos. If you havent visited JeffCarterbowling.com, please feel free to stop by. I make myself very accessible to all of you out there and if anybody needs anything, i'm happy to help in any way that i can. Bowling has given me a lot over the course of my career, and my goal is to give back as much as i possibly can
Thanks for your time
