That plus the fact we already have under-used loaners.
Perhaps a donation to the local school district or community college?

You get these from time to time. IMHO, it's not worth the hassle. The
board voted down a donation to the club for reasons Charlie mentions. I'd
thought it may be something we could do as part of outreach, but it's just
not in the cards.
