Donor Recognition Program
Honoring those who help Green Castle "Buy the Farm" and acquire the airport property
March 19, 2023
We’re excited to announce a plan to formally recognize people who help make Green Castle Aero Club possible. We’re taking an idea from The Donor Wall at the EAA museum in Oshkosh, WI- which I’m sure many of you have seen when visiting.
This will allow us to show our appreciation to people who have made financial contributions in the past and to recognize people who donate to our cause in the future.
The south wall of the original office area will be turned into a donor recognition area. Donors will be recognized with individual engraved plaques at three different giving levels.
Red plaques will identify donors at the $500.00 level, white plaques will designate the $250.00 level, and blue plaques the $100.00 level. All donations made to the Foundation will be tax-deductible for the donors and will be used for the purchase of the airport property.
Purchasing the airport property is a huge step in assuring that Green Castle Aero Club will not only exist, but will prosper well into the future!
Since Don Nelson founded Green Castle in 1976, people recognized it as a very special place, far from a typical for-profit operation. The big question was always, “What happens when Don is no longer here?” Don's legacy will always influence what and how we do things at Green Castle, but now that the Club owns the property, people can be assured that it will be here for generations to come. On behalf of the Green Castle Board of Directors and the Green Castle Aero Club Foundation, I’m inviting everyone to join our efforts to solidify the future of our Club by making a contribution to “Help buy the farm!” It will be much appreciated and I think you’ll be proud that you did!
Contributions can be made in a couple different ways. Of course cash is always king, but if it works better for you, we can simply set up a Zelle, Chime, or Venmo account and spread the monthly payment out over 5 months for a $250.00 donation or 10 months for a $500.00 donation. No credit cards or interest needed!
For more information or to make a donation please contact me at rtreiber.uscellular@gmail.com.
Thank You for considering this opportunity!
