Yes, fellow Montana Federationists, I have them in my hot little hand.
Below are some excerpts from the accompanying letter explaining about the
Kenneth Jernigan raffle tickets, for those who don't know about them and
even for those who do.

As you are aware, we established the Kenneth Jernigan Convention Scholarship
Fund at our 1998 convention in Dallas. The support from members and friends
has been both generous and enthusiastic. The committee is again sponsoring
a "limited edition raffle" to raise money for the Kenneth Jernigan Fund.
The ticket cost is ten dollars. This drawing will yield at least $10,000
net for the Kenneth Jernigan Fund.
You might ask, "What's in it for me?" Here is what's in it for you. If you
are the winner of this drawing, you will receive round-trip air
transportation for two to and from Orlando, Florida, for the National
Federation of the Blind's National Convention in July 2016. You will also
receive lodging at that year's convention hotel for seven days during the
convention. You will receive registration and banquet tickets for two. In
addition, you will receive a cash prize of $1,000. On the other hand, if
you don't win, but you sell the winning ticket, your chapter will receive
$500. You do not have to be present to win.

We are asking each state affiliate to either sell or buy its allotment of
tickets. If you choose to buy tickets for your affiliate, a suggested use is
to donate tickets to the door prize chairman to be included with regular
convention prize drawings.

All sales are final by June 15.
Wouldn't it be fun for you and another person of your choosing to be able to
go to the National Convention next year all expenses paid?
Joy Breslauer, President
National Federation of the Blind of Montana

Live the life you want
The National Federation of the Blind knows that blindness is not the
characteristic that defines you or your future. Every day we raise the
expectations of blind people, because low expectations create obstacles
between blind people and our dreams. You can live the life you want;
blindness is not what holds you back
