Here is how it works. You buy a three digit number for $5. This number is good every day during the month of May. If your number is drawn on a Sunday through Friday, you receive $50. If it is drawn on a Saturday, you receive $100. So $5 gives you 31 chances to win! That’s pretty good! All raffle proceeds help the NFB of Maryland.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>We also have an incentive for selling tickets. If you sell at least 35 or more tickets, you will receive $25 at the national convention, or, if you do not attend convention, you will receive $25 in July. We have 1000 tickets to sell, so please consider helping to sell tickets so we can make the maximum amount possible on this important fund raiser.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Until January 31, you can reserve any number which is special to you. A birthday, anniversary, lucky number, etc. Numbers are reserved on a first come, first serve basis, so please get any special number requests to me as soon as possible. Or, if you normally purchase a ticket from someone specific, please be sure that person knows you would like a specific number. If the number is available, you will be notified, and the number will be held for you until you pay for your ticket. Any numbers requested but not paid for by February 15 will be put back into the general pot of tickets.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>If you would like to sell tickets, please let me know as soon as possible. The more people who sell tickets, the better chance we have of selling all 1000 tickets. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>If you have questions, or would like a specific number or tickets to sell, please contact me at 443-708-3663 or <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><a href="mailto:melissa@riccobono.us">melissa@riccobono.us</a><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Please forward this message to the At Large and TLC Chapter lists, as, for some reason, I could not easily find those email addresses.
