Here is the format that some of the growers came up with:
You must be in the pool in the year that you grow the new WR. The fee for being in the pool is $20 annually until a new world record is grown and is due by June 1st. If it goes a few years and a new grower wanted to get in they could for $20 with no penalty, kind of like lottery.
You do not have to be a GWG member to get in this pool, but to win the pool with your WR melon you do have to weigh it at a GPC site or use the GWG non GPC weigh off form.
After the June 1st deadline I will send out a email to all that have joined and the names of those that are in, with the total of the bonus each year.
You can pay with PayPal and send to: superbangbang@msn.com ( if using paypal please send $21. to cover paypal fee's )
Or you can send a check for $20. to: ( please make a note for WR Pool, you can make the check out to GWG or Marvin Mitchell )
If you have any questions on this you can contact: Jeremy Terry at jeremyterry@gmail.com or Marvin at superbangbang@msn.com
