The Maroon Army Scheme is a very important fundraiser for the club GUST hope to be part of in the League of Ireland in 2013. While money generated through sponsorship, match day, special events etc. will play their part in financing the season, it's the steady weekly income from the Maroon Army and the Galwaysoccer Lotto that will make the difference between struggling through the season from one week to the next and having something in reserve. Having a steady income every week of the year makes the whole thing far more viable.
The Management Committee have decided to do a special deal for the combined Maroon Army and Galwaysoccer Lotto fundraisers. At the moment there are 4 levels of commitment in the Maroon Army detailed
here. Anyone who commits to pay €120 a year can now get a year's subscription to the Lotto for an extra €50, thats entry into 52 draws for the price of 25. Whoever commits €240 a year to the Maroon Army can get a years Lotto for an extra €40, €360 to the Maroon Army gets you Lotto for €30, and €480 to the Maroon Army gets you Lotto for €20, or entry into 52 draws for the price of 10.
I really hate special offers that are for new subscribers only and anyone who is already availing of the service has to continue on a lesser deal, so this one is not like that. This offer is for anyone who is already in the Maroon Army scheme as well as anyone who wants to join. If you are a member of the Maroon Army you can add a years subscription to the Galwaysoccer Lotto for the appropriate amount.
At the moment a years subscription to the Galwaysoccer Lotto costs €80, less than €2 a week. For anyone who has such a subscription you can now join the Maroon Army for similar discount depending on which subscription level you would like. That will be an extra €90, €200, €310 or €420.
If you want to support a team thats compatible with our "One City, One County, One Club" aim, playing in Eamonn Deacy Park in 2013 then please make a monetary commitment to that goal. At the very least play Lotto every week. It only costs €2, a coin. You'd throw one at something that was annoying you and not miss it. A years subscription to the Galwaysoccer Lotto costs €80, less than €2 a week. A years membership to the Maroon Army can be had for €120, a little over €2 a week. A Maroon Army membership and a years Lotto subscription can be had for as little as €170, which is a little over €3 a week, less than the smallest € note.
