My Credit Card Doesn't Work

2008-07-11 16:14:24 -0600

This is a glitch we’re working on, but it doesn’t look likely that it will be fixed. This site for one reason or another doesn’t accept some cards from certain banks. (First Bank of the Rockies for one…)

If you try to use your credit card once and it doesn’t work, try it again. If it doesn’t work that time, you probably have one of the cards that doesn’t work. But don’t worry! We didn’t charge you! So you can do a money order or give us a call if you’re in the golden area.

We will also start selling these items at games come fall 2008.

--Do you have more stuff?

This WebStore was created April 30th, 2007, so we’ll definately be adding more products as time goes on. Visit back anytime, and remember we play the sport EVERY YEAR, so we need that money! Get buying!

--How can I find out where my money's going?

2007-05-02 03:18:54 -0600

With every purchase, a letter will be mailed with your new stuff. This letter will let you know what we’ve been up to and what your money has contributed to. So not only do you get some cool memorabilia, but you also know what’s going on in Golden. You can also check out our main website to see later on what we’ve recieved new.

--Is it safe to use my credit card?

2007-05-02 03:16:54 -0600

I assure you, yes. This is a protected website. Mines Lacrosse accepts payments through PayPal and all transactions are closely monitored and verified.

--Can I just donate money?

2007-05-02 03:15:40 -0600

Absolutely. If you click on the donations section, we offer a tier system of payments. If you donate, you can remain anonymous or be praised on our website for being a loyal supporter of Mines Lacrosse.

--Do you fundraise?

2007-05-02 03:13:50 -0600

The correct answer to this question is when do we NOT fundraise. Being such an expensive sport, Mines Lacrosse gets a certain amount of money from the school, but its just not enough. Every year we have our Texas Hold’em Tournament which gives us a good hunk of change. From there, we buy King Soopers Certificates and sell them off for a 5% kickback. This year we sold tickets to a DUvs.OhioState game. Every year we have an Alumni game and wish for a few donations, but usually we have so much fun playing we tend to forget about it. (Check out the Alumni Game Package in the Alumni section) We’re always looking for more ways to make playing easier on the player’s wallets. This is a new method we’re trying out.

--Is Mines Lacrosse a Non-Profit Organization?

2007-05-02 03:08:08 -0600

Absolutely. We are a club of the Colorado School of Mines “Club Sports Council.” We do all this stuff just to play the greatest sport in the world- Lacrosse.
