Customer Testimonials

The George Ranch High School Theatre Booster club participated in the Mickman Brothers wreath fundraiser for the first time last winter. Our theatre group is small but mighty! In its short four year existence our talented kids have been honored with numerous acting awards from the Houston theatre community, the University Interscholastic League, and from our home state of Texas. The Mickman Brothers wreath fundraiser was a huge success and we raised over $1,000! That money allowed the theatre booster club to award two $500 college scholarships to two very deserving senior theatre students. We are so thrilled with your fundraiser that we are participating again this year and will be putting the money raised towards our trip next summer to Scotland! The George Ranch High School theatre group is one of only 50 high schools in the nation that are invited to perform at the American High School Theatre Festival in Edinburgh, Scotland in Summer 2015.

We are so excited about all the blessings that our theatre group has had and so grateful for the opportunities that the Mickman Brothers fundraisers have brought us. Thank you so much!

Boy Scout Troop 70 is based in Lewisburg, West Virginia, and incorporates international travel as an important part of its activity program. This helps keep the older Scouts active in the Troop and provides them with the opportunity to learn about other countries and cultures, develop self-confidence, and better understand and appreciate their own country. In the summer of 2015, twelve Scouts and three leaders spent three weeks in the Netherlands and visited the Rijks Museum of Art and the Ann Frank House in Amsterdam, traveled to The Hague, attended an international scout jamboree with over 40 countries represented, and explored the area around Maastricht by bike. We visited the World War II fort at Eben Emael in Belgium which protected several bridges over the River Meuse and paid our respects to the 15,000 soldiers buried at the American Cemetery in Margraten. That was a very sobering experience because the Scouts realized that many of the soldiers buried there were only a few years older than themselves.

In order to pay for the trip, all the Scouts actively participated in the Mickman Christmas wreath fundraiser and by planning ahead for several years, several of the Scouts were able to pay for the entire cost of the trip. Over the years, Mickman Christmas wreaths have made it possible for Troop 70 to visit Japan, Iceland, Germany, England, and the Netherlands and these trips have helped dozens of Scouts become productive members of their communities.

Our troop has been raising money for a large trip. This fundraiser is great because people like to buy something they can use. This was our second year and the girls found they had easy sales from repeat customers then could work to get new customers. We had less girls in the troop selling but still raised the same as last year! That was an easy fundraiser!
