[nfbwatlk] Raffal ticket printing services was: Setting the Record Straight

[Prows, Bennett (HHS/OCR)]

Hey Mike,

I can't seem to deal with the web site for raffle tickets as easily as you do.  I'd love for you to order 200 tickets for the Snoking chapter, for which I will reimburse you.  I'm sorry for the lateness of this, but guess that's my fault.  I will personally be selling as many as possible in the next month.  Please have them sent to:  Bennett Prows
12636 N.E.144Th St. Apt. D 101
Kirkland, WA  98034.  Don't know ifthe numbers are important, but we were supposed to have numbers from 6001 to 7000.  Won't worry about that though.

Thanks for your help on this.

Feel free to call, (206) 615-2621, (office);  (425) 814-4187 (home), or (425) 830-8811 (cell).

I understand if you can't get to this at this late date.

Thanks.
/s/

Hello all:
I found this site to print my raffal tickets for Seattle.

http://www.ticketprinting.com/Raffle-Tickets

the total cost with shipping was around $35.00 for 300 tickets.

The text I used was something like:

iPod Touch
64 GB (3rd Generation)
National Federation of the Blind of Washington
www.nfbw.org

the stub is removable and has lines for name, phone, address, and email. It also has the ticket number so this is printed on both parts of the ticket.
the back has a bar code so it can not be copyed
the thought is that we can have people put as much info as they want so that we can contact them.
Thanks.

believed.

>First, the call was for NFBW Board members and chapter presidents. Discussion of fund-raising was not the primary purpose of the call; we started out discussing affiliate finances and the method 
for evaluating and administering grants to assist individuals to attend the fall convention. The discussion morphed into a fund-raising discussion. It seemed inappropriate to me to end the call, thereby 
suppressing discussion when there was considerable enthusiasm.

>The bottom line is that people came up with a fund-raiser spontaneously. In my book, that's a cause for celebration. While I regret any hurt feelings, the Movement is bigger than any one of us and 
I submit that we should figure out ways to manufacture tickets for the drawing (I'm working on this for the Clark County chapter but could always use ideas and assistance) and sell those tickets!
