Count me in too, just gotta wait till I paid my Xmas bills!!! :-P

 

Anyone who wants a FREE CRAWFORD PLENUM, please check the first post in this thread and look for the Update as of 1-12-2005. BTW, I have a secret about this plenum that I cannot disclose. However, I can promise you that this will be the NEWEST VERSION of the Crawford Plenum that is raffled off.

Now I really expect to see some more raffle tickets purchased.

 

Wow!! you are sure putting some major strings!!! Thanks for all the hard work! Just sent you the raffles money vai paypal.

Thanks

 

Neff,
When will the raffle ticket special end???

 

they day before u buy!!!

 

I'm thinking Jan 31st. I'm also going to offer another special exclusively for the first round of people who take me up on the 7 tickets for $52.50 deal (which to this point has been 8 tickets for $52.50 ).

I will not disclose what this special offer will be, but I can GUARANTEE you that it will be a VERY inticing offer and people who didn't take me up on the initial offer will be asking me if they can get the SAME DEAL! Answer in advance is NO!!!

 

Neff.. I like this idea. You've got me curious as to what it could be though
(When will you divulge that information? )

 

After Jan 31st...

 

Paid the $52.50 via PayPal.

 

That's eight tickets for you kind sir, (plus one more for joining the club). You're also qualified for the "special" that I'll be running after January 31st. I've spoken with Demonteverde321 about this idea and we BOTH like it. If Dabomb approves then it will be definite!

Hint: It's my goal to help out those who help out the club in its "Establishment Period". As I've said before, the initial fees for starting a club are all due NOW! IRS filing fees, state license fees, tax i.d. fees, t-shirt fees, insurance fees, bank account fees, etc... The people who help establish the club, IMO, deserve something for their help and support. It's also my goal to make this club large enough that next year we won't need to "kindly beg" for support. Hopefully we'll have to get a stick to beat people away!

 

you forgot website fees...I charge $30/hr!!! & there is a small hosting fee
So as you can see we have bills bills and more bills!!!

But in response...i do like the idea of "specials" for those who dont delay on buying raffle tickets...i foresee a flurry of purchases on March5th and the few days prior BUT those that want to get 7 (reads 8) for $52.50 to help us pay bills should be able to get a little extra in the coming months.

 

todd give me a week or two and ill have the 52 for you.

 

I haven't spoken with John yet, but my current plans are for him to "snag" one of the girls he has working behind the service desk and have them actually draw the raffle tickets. This way the raffle can be 100% free from "tampering".

What is everyone's opinion of ME participating in the raffle? Is it poor form for me to try to win some zaino? I've already told Ian and Wes that they can participate and just wanted everyone's input...

 

Of course you should participate Todd, NO members (even the President!) should be left out of the raffle! The least you deserve for all your hard work is the extra 8 raffle tickets, so you should take advantage of that before Jan 31st

 

I think everyone should be able to be in the raffle. The pres and the chair should get a chance at these prizes.
