Step 1: The Core is in Place
Your organization's best assets are the people who already know who you are and what you do. Finding the means to motivate them to action is the challenge you must undertake. You need a format that is easy to understand with a proven track record for significant success. The golf marathon fundraiser will meet this challenge for you. The core people, the 20% who have been your most loyal supporters, most likely your Board of Directors and key volunteers, are the ones who can energize this campaign. They historically give their financial support. You need a small measure of their time and their talent to ask others for you. The campaign goal will be a significant amount and will provide a sense of pride in the achievement to all involved.
Step 2: The Life Blood
There is nothing you can strategically accomplish today that is more important to your mission, than expanding your donor base. The life blood of every organization is their base of support. Is your donor base growing? Do you have a plan in place to exponentially increase your givers? The golf marathon fundraiser is designed to develop 80% or more new donors for your base. And best of all, if you practice good stewardship, they will be sustainable into the future.
Step 3: Smaller is Larger in the Long Run
Not long ago, when the stock market was soaring, when personal discretionary income was abundant, and when major corporate giving was readily available, organizations felt secure in their financial support plans. The reality is our plans should be relevant in all economic environments. Today is a world apart from "not long ago". The generosity is still available if the ask is appropriate and personal. People give to people not to causes. The golf marathon fundraiser secures gifts in small attainable amounts. The typical donation is not sacrificial and ranges from $50 to $200. The size of the gift broadens the opportunity and is not exclusive in nature. The smaller increments create a much larger base that will be more dependable in the long run. These supporters are very likely to repeat annually if properly acknowledged and thanked.
Step 4: Voices to Your Mission
How important would it be to have your mission statement personally communicated to several thousand people without spending a single advertising dollar? That's correct, personally communicated. Priceless! Strange as it may seem to say, most Board members cannot accurately recite their organization's mission statement. Do others know what you are passionate to accomplish? The golf marathon fundraiser recruits 40 or more enthusiastic, informed, volunteers to share your story. They will communicate with 40 or more people with whom they already have a personal relationship. They will multiply your efforts and dramatically put voices to your mission and passion.

The Perfect Golf Swing- 4 Essential Tips for Improving Balance
First and foremost, simply because your stance is correct, it does not automatically mean you have proper balance. Balance is crucial to your golf swing because it dictates how your weight transfers and the tempo of your swing. These 4 key tips will help improve your balance, which will enable you to improve your game.
1) Medications Can Effect Proper Balance
The correct functioning of the inner ear is important for proper balance. Some medications cause what is known as "ear poisoning." Nearly 1/2 of people taking certain forms of anti-biotics experience the dizzying side effects of "ear poisoning". Balance can be effected by taking diuretics. Diuretics cause a loss of electrolytes such as sodium and potassium, which can cause dizziness and effect balance. Should dizziness persist, be sure to consult a physician. Migraine headaches can affect balance as well.
2) Loosen Up And keep Your Head Still
Keeping your head still during your golf swing is critical for proper balance. When the head moves during the swing, the brain has difficulty keeping the body centered and balanced. Similarly, when muscles are tense, balance is negatively affected. Learning basic stretches, and applying them prior to playing, can help improve balance. In fact, learning some basic Yoga or Pilates, can improve flexibility and improve balance.
3) Try Some Balance Exercises
A very simple, but effective balance exercise, is to close your eyes and stand on 1 leg. The objective is to gradually increase the length of time you can stand without losing balance. Try it, it is harder than it sounds!Another great way to improve balance is to kick a soccer ball around a backyard obstacle course. Set up some chairs and weave around them while gently kicking the ball. Start off very slowly and gradually pick up your pace. Do not worry about how "good" you look, simply perform at your own pace, and strive for improvement. An improvement in your golf swing is well worth looking a bit awkward.
4) Start Using A Balance Board And/Or an Exercise Ball
To find out about purchasing either a balance board or an exercise ball, simply "Google" in those terms while performing a Google search. Practice sitting for extended periods of time on the exercise ball. Sitting on the ball is excellent for strengthening the core muscles and improving balance. Your posture will improve, too!The balance board is challenging to use, but using it regularly will greatly improve your center of gravity. A well aligned center of gravity is crucial for your golf swing.Hopefully, these 4 tips will improve your balance. Just remember, practicing for hours on your golf game will be unproductive if you do not work on improving balance. No other single factor will do more to improve your golf swing.

golf mk4 1999 T reg electrics arnt working ?
my golf mk4 when you insert the key the battery light remains on now when u turn it to the degree where all ur electrics should power up ie dash board . lights , indicators , wipers should come on they dont but the the car will still turn over ? any ideas what could be wrong
You must have problem with the actual ignition switch or switch connections. There is power to the switch or else it wouldn't attempt to start. Look for a wire disconnected/ broken from switch that feeds all the accessories, this wire feeds your fuse box so the problem is between the two. Hope this helps.
