MyPlates promotion


To: Husker Fans

Beginning May 6th @ 7am, My Plates will be giving away 1,000 FREE sets of official specialty license plates to the first 1,000 people who register their details on our promotional page, www.myplates.com/go/1000plates. This exclusive offer will only be promoted via our plate partners and we would like to get the University of Nebraska involved.

Customers who visit www.myplates.com/go/1000plates on May 6th will simply enter their name and email address, and then they will receive a redemption code via email valued at $55— good for a set of one year, background-only plates. They can also contribute the $55 code towards the purchase of a personalized plate or a longer 5 or 10-year term. But they need to act fast— once the 1,000 plates are gone, they are gone for good. We are only releasing 1000 redemption codes.

This is the perfect opportunity for Huskers fans to finally get that plate they may have been considering— and it's a great way for Nebraska to increase your footprint in our program with more Huskers plates on the road.

The 1000 free sets of plates are shared among all groups connected with MyPlates. You must be prepared to enter the giveaway on Monday, May 6th @ 7am!!! Also remember, it's first come first service when registering for the special "code" number.

The Husker plate is currently under redesign as DPS requested a change to the lettering. Content is the same. As a result, the new plate design is not yet on the MyPlates website. You can still enter the promotion on May 6 and the new design will likely be available by that date.

GO BIG RED!!

It is also your first chance to catch the Big Red Football team in 2013. Start your New Year off great and come out and join us for this January 1 Bowl Game.

Fwd: NEBRASKA VS WISCONSIN BIG 10 WATCH PARTY


Where                 SAM'S BOAT (ALTERNATE LOCATION)
                             3908 Braker Lane, Austin , TX 78759
                             Phone: 512.502.0404
 
Time                   7:17 PM

Date               Saturday, December 1, 2012

Location         PLEASE NOTE: Alternate Location. Due to Holiday party bookings and late notice of our participation in the Big 10 Championship Game, Cool River cannot accommodate our group this Saturday. They assisted in arranging an alternate location, Sam's Boat at the Northwest Corner of Braker and Mopac(Loop 1), just behind the Shell Station and Burger King on the corner.

The Legends Champion Huskers have one more big step on their path to the Rose Bowl in a rematch with Leaders Champion Wisconsin for the Big 10 Championship. The previous meeting, won by the Huskers in a comeback, matches up two improved teams from that previous meeting. This should be a very exciting game and relief from last week's windy conditions as this game is in a dome. Look to see more of Rex Burkhead after his return to action last week. The Nebraska attack can certainly use his contribution.

Your attendance at the Watch parties, participation in the Board, raffles, merchandise purchase, and payment of your annual dues all help help our group support the University with a Scholarship donation each year. We accept cash, check, or credit cards. For your convenience, you can now pay your dues via PayPal on our website, "
