Campaign $41/36 Aims for 500 New Contributors:
ARE YOU IN?
We need EVERYONE'S help and participation to raise the remaining $41/36$3.5 million to complete the acquisition of Del Mar Shores Park and pay off the debt incurred by the City of Del Mar.  So to make it easier during these tougher economic times, we are asking community families to contribute just $41 per month for 36 months. 

GOAL BY DEC 31
AS OF SEPTEMBER 30
GOAL TO DATE
750 DONORS
250 DONORS
295 DONORS

$41 a month equals a casual dinner out for two, or a week's worth of lattes and newspapers.  And $41 a month adds up over three years to almost $1,500; a generous contribution to Del Mar Shores Park. 

Can we count on your support to reach the $8.5 million goal? 

Del Mar Family Partners to Reduce
Your Energy Costs


With the cost of energy rising into the foreseeable future, taking control of your home's energy use has never been more important than it is today. If you have been considering a solar power system to help you reduce electric bills, now is the time!
 

Tom & Kathy McCarthy, Balboa Ave., know the environmental and economic benefits of solar power, and were early contributors to the Campaign for Del Mar Shores.  To generate interest among other neighbors, they have offered to contribute $1,000 to the Campaign for Del Mar Shores for every solar power system installed in Del Mar zip code 92014 from their company, Yes! Solar Solutions through the end of 2008.

Tom can provide you with an evaluation of how much you will save, and what tax credits are currently available.  For more information, call Tom at 858-336-3249, or by email at tom.mccarthy@yessolarsolutions.com.


We are most appreciative of this opportunity to benefit the Campaign towards our $8.5 million goal!

   YOUR HELP
NEEDED NOW!

Our goal is to get all Del Mar area families involved  -- 500 new donors by Dec. 21, 2008
ARE YOU IN!

Just $41 per month for 36 months adds up to $3 million with a total of 2,000 families by the end of the campaign.  Can we count on your help?

The City of Del Mar recently refinanced the $3.5 million loan at more favorable terms.  But the Campaign is not over yet!  We must raise the remaining loan balance and interest.
  
   WE NEED YOUR HELP NOW to assure that the entire 5.3 acres remain as open, recreational and educational space.  Join the $41/36 Campaign Today!
