It's time for the raffle!

[Host Ray]

After 9 months of planning it's finally time to have the raffle! The raffle will be live in the chat room on Sunday, January 31st @ 9:00pm est. You do not have to be in the chat to win but it will be fun to follow along. Here's a photo of the Grand Prize:



Here's a link to all of the prize lots you can win!

The first ticket pulled from the bowl will win the Grand Prize. I will then have a double blind raffle. Each prize lot has a random number. I have 2 bowls, 1 with the raffle tickets in it and another with the prize numbers in it, I will pull a number from each bowl and pair them together until all the prize lots are gone.

If you still want a ticket it's not too late, I will accept payment by PayPal only until Sunday, January 31st at noon est. They are $10 each and get you 2 chances in the raffle. Send it to me at PayPal as a gift to avoid fees, R.dubois@comcast.net. Be sure to include your address.

I will try to get prizes shipped with in a week after the drawing.

Host Ray,
I don't mean to sound totally obtuse ... but, is that AM or PM on the 31st?

Betty,

That be a PM time, not AM.

AM or PM at 12 o'clock is confusing, .. so that's why Ray said Noon

... oh Ray, .. my "check is in the mail" (or at least your PayPal account)

[Betty Hiner]

Ohhhh! I actually went back and re read Rays post!! I thought I'd major league screwed up again, and read it wrong!! I will get you for that one Chris!!

[fcch]

Oh NOOooooo ... fewer things in life could be worse than Betty H "out to get me" !!!

Just when I thought that this year would be the year that I would get to a fishIn south of the 48th

Then again, ... he actually specified EST too !!!

Chris, this means your DAYS are numbered. I believe you do know this!!







PS can I have one of your rods??

You have to know how very grateful I am to Ray for organizing the Bench Raffle, to all who donated, and all who purchased tickets. You all have done a very wonderful thing to keep the memory of J. Castwell alive. Jim would be humbled by it, but he'd still try and fix your casting.

Thanks so much one and all.
Hugs,
LadyFisher
