I'm completely blown away guys! I remember donating $100 and thinking that I'd be happy if we hit $2,500 after Pinters said "match me". Then we hit $7k in no time and I thought that maybe we could get $15-20k. We've had donations of various amounts from pretty much every regular and semi-regular on this board, and even had people sign up in order to post their receipts. We've raised over $125,000 to help support some absolutely outstanding people, and I couldn't be prouder. Can't even put it into words, friends.

My mind is blown over this movement as well... Unbelievably inspiring shit! Just set up my recurring payment... Super easy and you can login and change your donation amount at any time... The odd number was strictly for Mendoza, btw...; )

GO HAWKS!
 
I have worked with fundraising for a long time and have had clients similar to HWC in size, finances and passion. I have never seen anything like this effort. Seriously, what happened here (and will continue to happen) is worthy of a marketing case study.

Indeed, GG. I've said the same before -- that this is very possibly an unprecedented event. A spontaneous fundraising effort that emerged without any solicitation whatsoever from a thread on a message board among a bunch of passionate fans who just decided to take matters into their own hands. You just don't see this happen. Iowa wrestling fans are a rare breed, and rare breeds can accomplish rare feats. The extra cool thing is that we're just barely getting started. Big things are ahead, no doubt!

When a group of people believe in something like this group does, it makes difficult things seem easy.

Randy, if you ever run out of ideas or have questions or just need to bounce ideas off someone, don't be afraid to ask this group, you'll get the good, the bad and the ugly, but it's all meant well.

Really wish I could squeeze it in... Ironically I will be right around the corner that same evening at the Hoyt Sherman grooving dafaq out to Les Claypool and Primus. Have one or 7 for me gents!
What's especially ironic is that, two days later, I'll be sitting in the same Hoyt Sherman watching our daughter dance ballet! Sorry we'll miss you Friday night, my man, but that concert sounds like a great time!

I just have no idea how to deal with this!! My head's going to explode if you guys keep it up...though I guess I should be thrilled with all donations, even the "odd" ones! :)
 
Hmmm. . . . $124,880.05. . . . IT'S MENDOZA TIME!!!

I was super excited to have the opportunity to put the total at the beautiful number of $125,000.....and then several others beat me to it, and even did the unthinkable by making it an "odd number" total...totally spoiled my day! :( How about I throw in $25,000 to get it to $150,000?? ;) If only.....

sorry, man, you already got my nickel. Best I can do!
 
Think we will ever see the HWC going and competing at the Midlands again? Might be able to pay their way just from $1-$5 per win bets on here. Possible lineup with bumping a couple guys could be...
125 Gilman
133 McD
141Clark/Dardanes
149Dardanes
157
165
174 Meyer
184Brooks
197 Burak
Heavy Telford

Randy,

I don't know if this is happening to everyone, but, when I google "Hawkeye Wrestling Club twitter" the twitter account does not come up. The "Hawkeye Wrestling" account appears, but it's hard to get to the "@HWC_wrestling" account.

I thought you should be made aware of this to possibly fix and would allow more people to find the official HWC twitter! I'm sure it is an easy fix with google but I think this will help a ton!

if you do the same search in google without spaces: hawkeyewrestlingclub it comes up as #2.

my suggestion would be to edit the profile name to have the spaces added. Also, put the Hawkeye Wrestling Club phrase in the "About" section.

The more locations that phrase is prominent, the better google will assist and rank.

Awesome, Wiltz! Good work! And nice to have you back off of the hiatus!

Everybody notice two key components of his post?
  1. He set up his recurrent monthly donation
  2. He's checking to see if his company will match (i.e., double) it
This is huge! Every Hawk fan who's interested in playing a part in the Hawks' return to the top of college wrestling and the HWC's ascent to top club status will do the same (in whatever amount is suitable, of course, and naturally, that will vary). All hands on deck!

I'm not even going to begin to pretend to know anything about that process lol, I just hope that soon when I google "Hawkeye Wrestling Club" or "Hawkeye Wrestling Club twitter" that a link to the clubs twitter will be readily available!

I think that something simple like that will increase traffic of their twitter heavily! And that is where a lot of HWC news and updates get put out!
