Hi Dave,
We agree with basically everything you have asked for except for the folling:
1, We will not be able to provide transport I'm afraid (whenever we get
some we will though).
2, We can definitely do the spring shoot for you but we don't know about
the Christmas shoot because those months can be very busy and we would
maybe loose a lot of money.
3, We have no problem with helping you guys getting some cheap banners (we
actually have none of our own), we have a close relationship with a bunch
of lads who make banners and we have to get ourselves some anyway so we
can sort that out yeah.
4, See below for both the hoodies and tac vests.
We will pay for half the cost on a full load out for the whole society
(this way you will all be uniformed and look great, this will help with
your ideas of making your society look more professional). The prices of
which are laid out below:
Trousers = €40, we will pay €20 per unit (these are seriously good quality
gear and none of you would have to buy anything else afterwards).
T-shirt = €12.70, We will pay €6.
Shirts = €40, we will pay €20 per unit also and again this is very high
quality gear.
Tactical vests = €53, we will pay €26.50 per unit.
Total cost on a full load out including trousers, t-shirt, shirt and tac
vest will cost both you and us €66.50.
They also provide hats and belts:
Special forces hats: €10
Boonie: €11.50
Captian's cap: €10
Belts
Special forces belt: € 17.60
We are willing to pay half for the hats and belts also.
If you want we are willing to pay half for a full load out in both your
indoor and outdoor camos (As you know it is sort of an obligation to have
two loadouts).
So we are willing to pay € 133.00 per member of DCU, I hope you avail of
this massive offer because if we just bite the bullet and get it over with
now then we can get the large costs out of the way early in the year and
move on to other things.
Sorry it took us so long to get back to you but we were looking for the
best quallity gear we could find (if we are going to sponsor someone we
want them looking good).
I don't think there is much more we can do for you at this stage but in
the future we have other ideas and sure we will talk about them next year.
Can you do for us?
Provide us with a web designer to help us with our website and update it
where necessary.
DCU airsoft society to make some thier members available to help Airsoft
Reloaded with events or leafleting campaigns.
Hope this suits.
Regards,
Brían
