Hi Folks, I'm planning a road trip to Western Australia (Perth etc...) I'll be leaving Melbourne around the 29th of June and will be off for two weeks. I'll pass through Adelaide too
I was hopng to make contact with some of the Phono guys in WA or SA before hand. Anyone on the list from either of these two states? Please email me: ma...@phonographsandgramophones.com OR mari...@optusnet.com.au Cheers, Mario From ethanu...@yahoo.com Sat Apr 28 15:47:50 2007 From: ethanu...@yahoo.com (wayne holznagel) Date: Sat Apr 28 15:48:24 2007 Subject: [Phono-L] Update on Jones Pop Message-ID: <384922.63636...@web38805.mail.mud.yahoo.com> I wanted to send a quick note to thank everyone for voting for my son's picture on the Jones Pop website. As many of you know, Ethan was killed in a car accident as he drove home from school over lunch hour last year. He was 16 yrs old. He was an avid skateboarder and a budding photographer. One of his dreams was to have one of his pictures used as a Jones Pop label. At some point after his death his picture appeared on the Jones Pop web site. A note sent out to the phonograph chat groups supported the picture to the tune of 577 votes with an average score of 9.7 out of 10. Thank you all so very much. I am copying an inquiry by Steve Ramm & my response so you will all share in the update. Thank you to everyone.

Hopefully I'll be able to answer them. There is no ending date as I understand it. There was a picture of the year contest but Ethan did not enter that. The labels that were choosen early last year are just now showing up on local shelves. According to the Jones Pop web site they only select photos a few times a year. Doesn't appear that they have started the process this year. So there is still time for people to vote. The young man that appeared in Ethan's photo is under 18. I knew his first name but not his last. Today, Saturday April 28, was the 1st Annual Ethan Holznagel Memorial Skateboard Competition. The kids are trying to raise money to fund a new skateboard park. The City Board that oversees park & rec is not too excited about spending $15,000 for new equipment so the kids have to raise the $ themselves. After today they should be about half way to the goal. Most of the skateboarders are under 16 and, as a result, are not generally employable in the area. They raise money through competitions, washing cars, odd jobs, etc. Of course, Paula & I have helped as we've been able to. Back to the young man that appears in the picture. Today my daughter & I were able to visit with him. He is going to have his parents sign the release and said he'd bring it over to me tomorrow. A release from his parents is the big hurdle at this point. Once the release is signed I will fax it to Jones Pop & contact the company executives. A fellow phonograph collector is going to help me to compose a letter to the CEO of Jones Pop. I believe we will have a good chance of having the photo considered. With 577 votes and an average score of 9.7 . . . I just believe that it will be considered. Again, I'm sorry for the delay in updating everyone about the picture. Paula, Katee, & I appreciate all the support from the world of phonograph collectors. Your generous support by voting has made an opportunity available for my son's dream to come true. Hi Wayne: We never got an update on the contest with your son's photo. Was there an ending date to decide? Thanks for an update.
