There, we will draw the name of one lucky winner of our 2012 Vacation Raffle. What will this lucky person win? He/she will win a $3500.00 gift certificate to a local travel agency to be used however the winner chooses, whether for a European vacation, cruise, or some other kind of vacation. The certificate can be used multiple times and not spent all on one vacation.</SPAN><SPAN style="FONT-FAMILY: 'serif'; COLOR: windowtext; FONT-SIZE: 12pt"></SPAN></DIV>

Please, either, forward this email to all the contacts in your address book or create your own message to your contacts about the raffle and direct them to our website. My suggestion is that you send out messages every week or two because people often don’t remember to get tickets with just one reminder. If you have a facebook or similar page, post a message about our raffle there. You can also sell tickets in person. Please contact my assistant, Lisa Bonderson, at </SPAN><SPAN style="FONT-FAMILY: 'sans-serif'; COLOR: windowtext; FONT-SIZE: 12pt"><A href="http://us.mc1107.mail.yahoo.com/mc/compose?to=lbonderson@labarrelaw.com" rel=nofollow target=_blank ymailto="mailto:lbonderson@labarrelaw.com"><SPAN style="COLOR: blue">lbonderson@labarrelaw.com</SPAN></A></SPAN><SPAN style="FONT-FAMILY:

Money from the raffle will support our NFB Colorado Scholarship Program and our BELL Camps. Each year we give five scholarships to deserving blind and low vision post secondary students to help attend college or university. Our BELL Camps, Braille Enrichment Through Learning and Literacy, puts literacy into the hands of blind children living in Colorado each summer through intense Braille lessons and other independent skills structured through a two week, academic camp.</SPAN><SPAN style="FONT-FAMILY: 'serif'; COLOR: windowtext; FONT-SIZE: 12pt"></SPAN></DIV>
