CK5 donation to Jason Payne Memorial Fund

[mrk5]

Just wanted to let everyone know at the Blazer Bash BBQ we presented Jason's parents with a $563 check plus about $90 in additional cash from sticker sales at the BBQ.

Thanks to everyone that purchased stickers and donated extra money so that we could make this possible.

The family announced at the BBQ that they are hoping to use the money to put a solar powered call box near the location of the lake so that anyone needing help in the future will be able to call out more easily. If they aren't able to get that worked out with the state of CA, then they will donate the money an organization that works to save the trails.

I feel very much out of the loop on this one...who was Jason and what happened to him?

Jason was known by many as "willyswanter" and he had drowned on a recent trip to the Rubicon. A very bright young man with many talents and a full life ahead of him that was cut very short. My avatar is his rig that he built and wheeled.

RIP Jason Payne.
