Posted: Thu Nov 06, 2008 2:25 pm Post subject: Clarkie Inspirational Bracelets |
|
|
I am selling Aaron Clark "Clarkie" inspirational rubber bracelets for $25 each with 100% of the proceeds going to Aaron's recovery fund. I hope that the bracelets will be a daily reminder and inspiration for Clarkie and his family and will bind all of us together as part of the Clarkie support community in the days ahead.
The inscription on the bracelets is from Aaron's quote described by his neighbor Brittany in her letter to Aaron shortly after the accident: "Quitting is not an option if you want to conquer your dreams". I thought Aaron's words are a great inspiration and words to live by for all of us. On the backside of the bracelet is "Clarkie #1" surrounded by king's crowns for King Clarkie. The rubber bracelets are in Clarkie's racing colors - silver on the outside with black lettering. You can see pictures of the bracelets below. The pictures are not great; the bracelets look better in person!
If you are interested in purchasing one or more of the bracelets, please make a donation directly to Aaron's fund (link is on the GetWellClarkie website) of $25 per bracelet. As soon as you email me the Paypal receipt, I will drop your Clarkie bracelet in the mail to you. Please make sure your mailing address is on the Paypal receipt or send me your mailing address via email.
If we sell all of the 40 bracelets, that will be $1,000 for Aaron's fund so let's all support our good friend when he needs it the most. Those of us who know Aaron and his family know that they would do the same for any of us without a second thought if the roles were reversed.
If we sell out and the demand is more than the supply, I will have more made but it may take approximately 2 weeks for production.

Phil, only met you a few times..how did you swing this? Are you in promotional printing/Advertising? What a great undertaking, Ive been keeping up on the Clarkie Column and havnt donated yet. I'll put one in for Colorado Powersports tomorrow.

Nah, Im not in any kind of promo or ad business. I just searched online and found a company that makes custom bracelets in small quantities and ran with it. Im funding the cost of the bracelets myself which is why I couldnt make 1000+. But if we keep selling them, I'll try and have more made.
And if anyone has a hookup in the custom rubber bracelet industry, please let me know.
Thanks
