The opportunity to get a Missouri SCV Logo License
plate is here!
This is important for our division and camps for two
reasons!
One: This will help promote and increase
awareness of our Heritage and all the good things the SCV does to honor
our Ancestors. And you’ll look good with your SCV tag on your vehicle!
Two: This is potentially a huge fundraiser for
our division and camps. Here’s why. Once the tag is set up and in place,
it has to be available to anyone in the State who may want one. How many
rebel flags do you see on cars and trucks as you drive around. I see quit
a few! I think there could easily be 1000 to 5000 guys in this state of
20 million, who would think, “Cool, a Rebel Flag license plate, I want
that”. That’s where the money comes in. That guy has to send our division
$25 for the right to buy the tag, we send him back a paid receipt to give
to the license bureau. We keep the $25! Multiply $25 by 1000,
2000, 5000. It’s a ton of money! That’s why you see these specialty tags
for various groups out there, it’s a fund raiser for that particular
organization.
Is your camp tired of being broke? Would you
like to have money so your camp could buy private land to put monuments
and flag plaza’s on? I really think this is our financial answer. I could
be wrong, but we’ll never know unless we make a valid attempt to make
this happen. This tag could be what puts us on the map financially. We
need money to do the things we need to do.
The division and camps will work out a Revenue
Sharing plan, and all will benefit from the proceeds the division
takes in off the tags.
What do we have to do to make this happen?
The state requires that we submit at least 200
applications and $5,000 to get this set up. Don’t let the $5,000 scare
you. We hope that you can donate $25 towards that. $25 times 200 guys
equals $5,000. In the big picture of life, $25 is not huge, and if you’re
committed to the cause, there’s no better way to help than by making that
donation. The 200 breaks down to about 16 guys per camp.
But we don’t want any money now! What we need is
your name on a list! We need to assemble a list to make sure we can
get the required 200 names. If we get the 200 names, then we’ll have you
fill out the application the state wants. At that time we hope you can
chip in $25 for each tag you’ll want towards the $5000 . You can tag
more than one car if you want, that gets us to the 200 tag minimum that
much quicker.
Act now by filling out the form below and returning it. Don’t wait!
Please fill it out now while you’re thinking about it! For the
Cause, Larry Yeatman, Editor
Your obedient servant,
John Christensen
Missouri Division Commander
