The Mustang Club is critical, key, important, no doubt...join, increase, support......but, I have to correct Diehard Pony, as a former MC Fund Drive Chairman, I have a nice litte history of the Mustang Club, on file, going back to 1979....with all due respect, and I like your passion, but, we NEVER had 10,000 members..not even close. I wish....long live Steve Wilensky.

I'm with Hixson on this one. I don't have the numbers, but want to say the Mustang Club once had close to 3,000 members...and I may be wrong about that...but never anything close to 10,000

If anyone has those numbers through the years, would love to see how membership has tracked.

I think back in the late 90's we had a little over 2000 members. We are going to try real hard to get that number back up there...and then some.

I have been a Mustng Club Member since the late 70's. I am not an SMU Grad but I do love college footbal, basketball, and soccer. I got involved when I had family members at SMU and eventully became a volunteer fund raiser. I do not have deep pockets nor am I a member of the in group so to speak. I have had 4 season footbal tickets and 4 season basketball tickets for at least 20 years.
I would invite all who love college sports and who go to the any of the SMU sporting events to join the Mustang Club and support the athletic program and help it to move to the championship level we all want to see in the metroplex.

Wasn't our company. We have never done a SMU game though we do the occasional Allen High School BBall game. Always wondered what it takes to get our girls out there. I have seen some bad halftime entertainment over the years and all the money I have poured into dance could at least get me in an SMU game for free ;-)

BrianTinBigD: Heck, call the SMU athletic office and find out what it would take to get your gals out there. Just don't let 'em bring feather boas! OMG! :roll:

I'm with you guys on the 11 year old dance groups - most of them are trying to be WAAAY too old - teaching the wrong thing to these girls too early. At least wait until they are 14-15 and have hips to thrust - it is usually an ex-dancer mom who is pushing little sally a little too hard.

One other suggestion to the Mustang Club. For those of us who are in such places as Washington DC which has approximately 500-600 SMU alums, you might consider working with the Alumni Association to put on a bus trip to the Marshall game this year. You could arrange for local lodging, a bus and people would pay their way. The bus could leave from say Tysons Corners. Provide beer, wine, sodas and snacks for the trip (make sure the bus has a toilet). This would be a way to get some of our out of towners interested in joining the Mustang Club. A lot of alums would like to have more involvement than just writing a check.

After a short call to the Mustang Club - Todays number is a little over 4200 Mustang Club Members.

Long Live Steve Wilensky! He got me started recruiting for M.C. in 1987.
Sorry if I spelled it wrong. Great Mustang!

It certainly helped the membership numbers when they started adding MC donation and thus MC membership to season ticket invoices.

They may be mustang club members but they're not current contributors bus.
one-time gifts but don't give on an annual basis.

Approximately 1800 is the number you can log in and see all the details

Those are your actual active members

Yup, what OTP said. There are currently 1800 active donors according to the website (which the site is prob most impressive thing out of the AD in a while).

So technically if you don't donate annually you're really not a mustang club member. You certainly wouldn't receive a new Mustang Club card with any benefits
