When the campaign deadline passed on May 31, our grand total exceeded the goal by over $30,000. With this type of support, combined with the many changes at the USRA, we will begin to see a much different organization in the years to come. There are many exciting things happening right now.
The first exciting upgrade is a new, internet-based membership program that your donations helped make possible. One advantage of this system will be the ability for all members to access information about fellow players, tournaments, matches and updates at any time. We have needed something like this to help unite the sport and its players. It will enable the USRA to maintain contact with all of the members for a very low cost, keeping us informed — personally and directly — of new events, players, and racquetball in general. These brand new features (and many more in the planning stages) are being made possible by your donations. I will publish a full accounting of where these funds are being used in an upcoming issue.
We will start a new fundraising campaign for the next season, and will ask you to please keep us on your list of worthwhile causes; we feel that our efforts are just getting started and we'll need your continued support to obtain our goals. The USRA is our organization and one of its main goals is "players helping players" and this can only be done with your support. Many thanks and keep on playing.
