[Ohio-talk] I PAD raffle

[Carol Akers]

We discussed fundraising ideas at the Jan Board mtg and this was one Crystal had.  We had tix printed and began distributing them at Washington Seminar and again at April Board mtg it was mentioned as an update on sales, etc.
 I and Eric have periodically put it out on the listserve for continued updates in selling and requesting tickets for chapters to sell.  If you are not on the listserve you would have missed it.
Were you at either board meeting?  If so, perhaps it was a moment away from the mind?
There will be tickets available throughout convention and our goal is to sell all 1000.  
But as I said, we do not want to take the purchase out of profits.

Hi Carol, and all,

Carol, if I'd heard of this previously, I, well, both
Bruce & I don't remember, and apologize for that. I
just reminded him of the $50 our chapter is being asked
to donate. My questions are these, though:

1) Is this (I'm assuming) to raise money for the state
affiliate? 
2) How many tickets are we selling? Is there a set
amount, such as 2500 @ $5 each?
3) How much are the tickets?

Thanks. I told Bruce about it and he may be calling one
of you, not sure. I mentioned sending the $50 to Sherry
Ruth. 


Thanks Again,
Everett

Hello folks!
Countdown has begun for Convention.? Everyone should be
getting excited, ready to work hard and play hard!?
Right? 12 more days.
Now down to business............Our I PAD raffle will
also be coming up SOON as well.?Eric and I are aware
of?3 Chapters that have donated $50 toward the purchase
of the I-PAD.? Where are the rest of our Chapter
Presidents??????? Where are those $50 checks?? We
REALLY NEED the money donated towards the purchase of
this raffle item if we are to be successful in raising
funds!
?
Please send those checks to Sherry Ruth over the next
12 days and then email or call Eric to let him know
when you have done this.? Divisions may also donate if
they would like, it is not limited to only chapters!?
We take any money we can get!
The Parents Divison is donating their $50 so come on
folks get that money in.
?
The BAD NEWS is that suddenly Oklahoma has the same
idea for a fund raiser and will also be selling tickets
at?
?
?We have a lot of tickets out with people here in Ohio,
so DO NOT FORGET to bring money and ticket stubs to
convention!? We NEED that money!
? Bring any unsold tickets with you and be prepared to
sell tickets during convention!
Gotta get all our tickets sold.
