do it for alice

the fawnz sent me this...and if the friend of the fawnz' needs help - i'm gonna do what i can...and i like MEC.

..........

I'd really appreciate if you could help me with ensuring that my father-in-law, Bill Gibson, is re-elected to the Board of Directors of MEC this year. Bill is the former CEO of MEC - and one of their most valuable contributors. However, not enough of us voted and he lost last year he by ONLY 13 votes!

Having him back on the Board is something he'd personally enjoy AND it is essential that MEC has leadership like his!

SO - this request has a few elements … and each one counts in the campaign to elect Bill! Please do whatever you can to help.

#1 YOU need to vote. Everyone who has ever shopped at MEC can vote (that $5 you had to spend the first time got you a "membership card" .. And all "members" can vote).

Please request your election package: https://www.mec.ca/Apps/election/electionRequest.jsp?FOLDER%3C%3Efolder_id=2534374302887427

ALSO - ask yourself: "Who else in my household can vote?" Should you get a package for your spouse?

#2 SPREAD the word. Even if you are aren't a member, many people you know likely are.
E mail: It would be greatly appreciated if you would forward this message to as many people as possible, along with your endorsement.

Facebook: we have just started a Facebook campaign called "I LOVE MEC": http://www.facebook.com/pages/I-Love-MEC/175716239138237?ref=ts … if you are a Facebook user, please click on this like and hit the "Like" button…. Then… I'd ask you to use the "Suggest to Friends" button. IF you are so inclined, please add a comment about why you "Love MEC". People who join this group will eventually be asked to vote for Bill.

Your vote and the votes of your friends and family are very important to this campaign. If you are able to support, I would consider it to be a personal favor!
