Hey, all of you! This is a great chance to get some good stuff (Ray has a slideshow of prizes including some doozies), as well as raising money to help get JC's memorial bench built and placed on the water, for some angler to stop at, sit on, and enjoy the water in good company. We need more entries!!!!

And if nobody else enters, then Sage and I will end up getting all of the prizes!

DG said it very well. Succintly, chance to get some good stuff and provide funding for the well deserved memorial for JC.

Just think of JC and the benefits you have have derived? Time to Step Up!

P.S. Ray, this thread needs a Sticky.

I just mailed another check. I can't believe the odds, if folks did the math, you'd be flooded with checks and the odds would change! Hmmm, maybe I shouldn't say anything and just hog all those fantastic prizes !

Bump- to keep it in the forefront

[Max]

Bumping again. Sure would like to see more comments on this?

Being basically a materialist, who/what determines who wins what? AND, based on the # of respondents are we not waayyy short of the goal?

Marco, It's a Raffle, you pick names out of a hat to see who wins what. Yes we are very short, less then 40 people have purchased tickets.

Less then 40!? Wow I would have thought more would have kicked in by now. I recently sent my donation. I wish I could have sent more, but at least I wanted to give something back for all that JC (and the Ladyfisher)has done to make this site a place I can come to for free information on flyfishing. I pray more will contribute. It is a very worthy cause. When Al Campbell passed away some years back we came together to make the memorial bench a reality. Let's do the same for James Birkholm. He deserves this memorial. Friends, if you can please donate.
