Jack,
this is great,
i just spoke to Kelly, she indicates there will be a PayPal account set up to purchase tickets and to make donations,
i live over 500 miles from Amherst so i told her i would like to buy a few tickets and have them donated to someone that knows Dane and would like to attend but may not have the extra funds to buy the tickets,
keep us posted as to the PayPal link,
thank you,
Mike Gallagher, NJ.

Yes - I too would love to donate by paypal. The facebook site doesn't have the link yet.
Dane has helped anyone who ever asked. We need to get behind this.

Will tickets be available at Mid Ohio?
Good idea, I will ask Kelly to supply some to the POG for sale at Mid-Ohio.
Thanks
I see that the paypal link is now up and running on the facebook page:

Thanks Jack, that is certainly helpful. Although I now live in Kansas, I'd like my virtual Porterhouse cooked medium rare.

The Penton family, Dane and Paul were THE riders I admired while I rode my Six-Day in the Western Maryland mountains when I was a kid. I had a wonderful conversation with Kelly yesterday and dropped a check in the mail. Best wishes to Dane and his caring family.
God Bless

I bought a ticket at VMD but won't be able to attend due to a scheduling conflict. Alot going on that weekend . but I know the $ is going to a good cause.
Never met the Man, but through out the years I read about his many accomplishments.
Really sorry to hear about his situation and thanks for the Pay-Pal info.
Will make a donation ASAP.
I wonder if the POG South West Membership could come up with something to do at the ARX Events? Little Stickers, T-Shirts, Etc.

Hi POGGERS.
The benefit for Dane was a great success and well attended. So many people were in attendance that I won't even make a guesstamation to The #. There was plenty of old friends to chat with Plus raffles, door prizes and fellowship. Had all the people that bought tickets (out of staters, etc.)there would not have been any standing room in the Meadowlarks club house. As it was, many had to eat and stand outside.
Dane was in attendance from begining to end and was wearing a big ear to ear smile. He even came out to help knock down the easy ups that covered the Pentons that were on display and to wheel the bikes into Paul Danik's trailer.
Many thanks to Danes daughter Kelly for puting on a first rate event (her first one). And to all the others that were involved.
May I add that I consider Dane to be a truly great and wonderful person and that I'am proud to know him and call him my good friend.
See you all down Old Dusty

I would like to personally thank all of you for making the steak fry a success without you we couldnt have done it. I havent seen my dad so happy in a long time. He walked in with a huge smile on his face and it stayed there the entire evening. Although we told him the steak fry was for him we wondered if he really understood it. After he left all of his children recieved a text (which is his best way to communticate with us) Thanks for the steak fry, had good food, good to see the people. Which leads us to believe that he realizes he was the "guest of honor". Once again thank you, Kelly
