In fact, until the charitable donation of $745.85 is returned to LightBeam Laser Creations as well as reimbursement for already branded Camp Molly merchandise, this placeholder will remain up and in place.

My company has acted in the best way I knew how during this endeavor, and over the last few months since the final camp of the season, the Camp Molly organization has repeatedly ignored ANY and all requests to determine my status for next year. Even when all proceeds, 15% of all LightBeam Laser Creations sales of Camp Molly branded apparel and goods, were being submitted as requested by the Organization, my small company donated the above amount to top up the 2024 donations to $5000. It is now obvious that the plan to remove my company from supplying Camp Molly with their Swag, was in the works during this time, and it was acted upon in bad faith that they would not indicate their plans with me.

The fact that they were not going to use me moving forward, and still took the donation, shows the lack of transparency the organization brought towards my company. The fact that repeated attempts to speak to the president, and other members of the board were ignored, I STILL made the donation. Now, December 18th, I received a letter stating that the organization was moving on from my company, which is fine, however the fact that I asked in previous correspondence in regards to my status, and never received a response before receiving todays notice speaks volumes.

Since receiving this letter, which essentially was a cease and decist letter on December 19th, I have been in correspondence with the Camp Molly Treasurer who has indicated that since there is no written contract in place, or a purchase order in place, that the current stock or inventory is my responsibility to bear. While the current treasurer was not part of the initial meetings in January and February of 2024, where LightBeam Laser Creations did in fact supply a written contract to Camp Molly, which was subsequently declined to be signed by the organization, instead, a mutually agreed upon verbal contract was struck. Since said treasurer was not part of the organization then, I suppose this situation would be new to her, and thus puts the honus squarely back onto the organization. Part of the agreement was that I would attend camps when possible, mostly on my own dime, throughout the province and also help instructing during the camps. Also selling Camp Molly branded merchandise at graduations, and at the suggestion of the President, during the week as well when parents arrived to pick up their campers at the end of the day. Therefore it is implied that I have pre-branded merchandise on hand as stock to sell.

I have begun legal proceedings and am in preliminary filing stages for monetary recuperation unless the organization agrees to refund the donation as well all cost of goods purchased and currently branded with Camp Molly logos.

I hope this serves as a wake up call to many out there as to the business practice in which I have been subjected to. I am truly, and deeply saddened by the events that have transpired as I truly believe in the initiative that the Camp Molly organization is working on by bringing females into the fire service at every level. It's too bad that my small company was treated the way it has been.

Sincerely,

LightBeam Laser Creations
