We've had a brick drive in the past. Initially it was a great success and raised some funds. However, over the long term it became an albatross. One problem we (and other groups) have had is - who lays the bricks when they get here? Also, the sales have slowed down a lot. It takes a long time to fill the minimum order and people when their bricks don't get placed post-haste.  We also have A LOT of empty spaces to fill up in front of our Depot. I would recommend doing the sales for a limited period of time and knowing exactly how many bricks you want to sell.

 

We were selling the bricks for $50. Another segment of our organization is taking over the sales and will be selling them for $100. I'm just happy not to have to worry about it anymore!

 

Please e-mail me directly at [log in to unmask] if you'd like me to send our form. It's in Publisher.

 

Hope this helps,

Hello,

I am writing this email on behalf of the Great Overland Station.  We are considering a brick recognition drive in June.  I am seeking more detailed information on how to implement such an idea. 

 

Any information you can provide would be very helpful :)

 

Thank you
