[Oabs] FW: gift card drawing

Hi Lillie and all, 

We can and should address the specifics at the fundraising meetings, but
here is my initial thought.  

If we're going to offer bigger prizes ($100 for 1st place, $50 or $75 for
second, and $50 for third), we can put the gift cards into "package" deals.
It reminds me of one of those coupon books that some high school
organizations sell, where you spend $10 on a book that has like $200 or $300
in coupons to various places.  It seems silly to raffle off $10 gift cards
as individual prizes, and making bigger packages of prizes would make the
deal sweeter for prospective buyers.  

Also, I think this raffle should be open to everyone, including division
members.  So, if you want to invest a few bucks for a shot at a prize, go
for it!  

Just my initial thoughts, we'll see what fundraising comes up with for the
definitive answer.

This is awesome.
I probably should wait to address this on the call on Friday, but while it
is on my mind I will ask it here. 
I know it was talked about having a first, second, and third place winner.
Will we have a number of winners equal to the number of gift cards donated? 
Also, are there any rules against members of this devision buying tickets?
Thanks

Kaiti,

I just want to let you know that at our February chapter meeting Capital
chapter voted to donate a $10 Papa John's card and a $10 Bob Evans card to
your division fundraiser. We will order these from Scrip in March. Eric and
I will also make a contribution from Scrip. I haven't figured out what our
contribution will be but I want to match our chapter's donation. 

 

I have commitments for 5 books of tickets at this point. Working on getting
more sales.

 

Enjoy the cold day,

Shelbi
