[Nfbf-l] What prizes make you buy a raffle ticket?

[Sherri]

I'm in agreement with you Marion and I believe there really are those who 
think the NFBF and the chapters are just going to run themselves and the 
money is going to come from the sky, but as many of us know, that just isn't 
true.

My suggestion is whatever we raffle off, we should try to get donated.
