Our Fundraising site is up and running!

Thanks to the good folks at Indiegogo, we now have our fundraising site up and running.
We need to raise at least another $10,000 and every single donation helps ,be it one dollar or 100. Our first donor got us 0.15% of the way to our goal this afternoon. Thank you our anonymous friend!

Pop on on over to our Indiegogo page and take a peek. If you cannot make a donation right now you can still help by spreading the word and sharing our page. The more folks that see it the better!


Prior to starting this drive we have raised $1,440 in donations and shirt sales so the trip fund is off to a good start. Jim and Lorry Vassar of Chicago have the distinction of being our very first donors way back in 2013. Thank you guys and we are looking forward to seeing you both when we reach Chicago!

Bumper stickers!

We just got in a batch of these spiffy new Euro style oval stickers. They are printed on vinyl with UV resistant inks and are a perfect way to let the world know that you are one of those rare souls fortunate enough to have ridden Vlad the unicorn. Decorate your car, slap one on your computer or notebook, stick one to the front of your kilt and call it a sporran--the uses are limited only by your  imagination!

These stickers are 4x6 and can be yours for $4 each. Even better, shipping is the princely sum of zip, zilch, nada, zero...FREE!


We are using the proceeds from all sticker sales this year towards funding this trip, along with proceeds from our Rock On shirts. We hope to raise far more than the actual travel costs of the trip so that we have a hefty donation for the Shriner's upon arriving back home in late September.

Glorious shirts

Our first big step in funding this trip got off to a great start.
Tonight the launching promotion for our Keep Calm and Rock on shirts came to a very successful conclusion. I am delighted to report that we exceeded our goal of 50 shirts, selling a total of 33 shirts and raising $674 for our travel expenses. We are extremely grateful for the support of everyone who bought a shirt (and in several cases, multiple shirts) and who helped get the word out. The shirts should arrive around July 4th and we  can't wait to be inundated with pictures of folks wearing them.
You all rock in a very big way!

Keep Calm and Rock On!

As of today, we have sold 27 of our Rock On shirts! The initial goal was to sell 50 of them, so we are a bit over halfway there with a week to go in the promotion. I'm hoping we'll blow right on past 50 and swamp the printing company with a massive order. Huge thank you's go out to every single one of you that has rallied to the cause. We can't do this without your support.

If you've not yet nabbed your shirt, head on over to our fundraiser page and get in on the fun! We've got shirts going as far away as Australia. If you are over the pond and want a shirt, just contact Katlinel the Rockinghorsegal. She'll take your order and ship your shirt out anywhere in the world.

We have what we think are the coolest logo shirts ever. They are available for a limited time at Booster.com and the proceeds will go to our soon to launch charity tour. We are aiming high and hoping to raise $25,000 so that at the end of the tour we have a hefty amount left over to donate to the Shriners. Get yours hot of the presses!
