Gifts
Joe,
Not a gift that I received, but rather one that my wife and I are giving each month of 2009, one of the clubs I belong to, the Alpine Fly Fishers, has their fund raiser meeting around Christmas, their only source of income for the year. My wife had a great idea of offering a monthy dessert for one lucky raffle winner. Turns out the club president won that raffle item. The tickets being sold for it were $5 tickets and the bucket for those tickets was fairly full, it brought in a lot of money. Guess we will be offering this raffle item at each yearly fund raiser.
