TFP Challenge

Those donations help keep the lights on for this place in an effort to help many others who are struggling. Nice.
Ya know, In full disclosure.......this will likely allow TFP not just keep the light on, but upgrade to LED's.
As is TFP's members are already doing an AMAZING job at keeping the site funded. Where once I kinda worried about how we're making next months server payments I now know our members will take care of things for us. Where we've always had issues however is taking the next step up and improving. Part of TFP's mission is not just to teach TFPC, but also further develop it. This includes testing new products, create new ways to deliver our teachings, and tinker with new chemicals as they come onto the market. TFP occasionally does testing behind the scenes on our own pools to make sure what we teach is safe and in fact works. Things like raising our own chlorine levels to XYZ parts per million to test for liner fading have in fact been done on our own personal pools way before we told our users to give it a go. TFP from time to time funds tests like these to help us learn more about pool care. From purchasing reagents for users who are willing to see what various chemicals do to pH, to offering to perform a complete water replacement for users willing to test the newest gimmick that just came out.......things like these are all fully funded from donations from our users.Also we are working hard not only to improve our teachings but also HOW we teach. Thanks to TFP's Supporters and subscribers of the PoolMath App we're slowly working to take large steps to use technology to improve how we maintain our pools. Below is a sneak peak at one item the developer of PoolMath is working on behind the dark curtain........again, all funded by TFP's users!
First off i will say again thank you to all TFP guides mods and admins yall are the best.
i done the math $2475.00 that is what my wife would have paid the pool service.That ended 11 months ago we fired 2 pool services in the first 5 months of owning a pool. You guys no why but it took me untill november 2017 to find you all at TFP.
i spent a couple 100$ on pool store advice before finding TFP. so add that on too lol. back to point from 11/2017 to 3/2018 i was on LC and MA only so did not spend much. i was lucky at the casino and it paid for a SWG yah! more saving( at least in time)
now back to the post topic of donations i realized i had not gave back near as much as i have received so yes i donated . Then thought about it and donated again. Then i found you can have it done every month through Pay Pal done that too. .
This still leaves me owing TFP IMHO but just know that every time i do a cannon ball i yell TFP

Hey! I just now saw this sly little note under my quote. Are YOU the one who sweetened the pot?
No, he is just taking credit for starting this thread which then prompted the anonymous donor

Go, woody! Yay!
Many thanks to the anonymous donor.
