  • Tenniswalt is the man...Thank You Walt

    I have never met Walt the only way I know Walt is threw this board. I thought I would share this with everyone an example of the people that makeup the community of the Timeshare forums message board. The following is what Walt did for me.

    The Green Bay Packers, state newspapers, and area merchants sold a collections of medallions called Packers Legends medallions collection. I live in an area of the state where the area merchants were not participating in the medallion program. To get the medallion I would have had to drive a 2 hour round trip each day to collect them myself. I wanted to get 2 sets 1 for my grandson and 1 for myself. I knew Walt lived in an area of the state where they were selling the medallions so I asked him if he would collect them for me and he did.

    This is what he had to do to get all 24 medallions. For 24 day straight days including Sat & Sun. he drove to a store bought 2 newspapers, thumbed through the paper to find the redeemable coupon, and paid for the medallion upfront out of his own pocket. For all I know he even might have had to drive to several different stores to get them.

    Thank you very much Walt.

          What a super nice thing to do. I've asked a special favor once or twice over the years to obtain something I can't find, and someone has always come through. I've also helped others when I can.

          There are some great people here and on TUG, willing to help others. We've got to nurture it.

              Thank you for sharing.

              In an age where watching the news can turn your stomach, it's always good to be reminded that there are GREAT PEOPLE in the world still.

              Cheers to Walt!!!

                Walt, that was so kind of you. You really went out of your way, and I have found that to be the case with many people here.

                Julie told us all about the Worldmark Angel's Camp, including the area, that our son enjoyed last year at this time; Boca Bum went out of his way to meet us at Waikiki Beach Walk and talk in person,giving us great advice; CC_dad showed us around Bonnet Creek and entertained us in his own unit last month. Then there are those who post sightings in the early morning hours, especially Angela! This is a great place with really great people.

                I love the timeshare owners here, especially those that go out of their way to be kind. A little kindness goes a long way.

                  Walt is a great guy, I already knew that. Yes, I wished the news would report the good deeds people do and not always the negative stuff that we hear day in and day out. We all would feel better and it would be contageous too. I remember how 9/11 brought us all closer together but I don't wish for another disaster.

                              Being away from my dw for the weekend and kinda worryin about my adult daughter driving back from Tahoe, I found great joy and some time to fade away to Hawaii with your beautiful Maui and Kauai photos accented with BocaBum99's very insightful and helpful comments on various locations over there. Thank you both. Gary
