Re: Preservation Raffle for Misssouri Forts

Hey all,

Anyone else want to post an opinion on the arsenal packs?? Should they go to only one winner or go to a second spot??

Plenty of tickets are still available, so if you are interested please send me a PM.

To those attending OWW I'll bring some tickets with as well.
Thanks for your continued support.

Gents,

I have gotten donations for 46 tickets so far, if you want to get in there is still plenty of room.
I'll be at OWW for Lee's Final Retreat and I know many of my ONV pards want tickets, I'll give an update on tickets available after Labor Day as well.

Remeber the drawing will be 10/31/07 or when the tickets are all gone if that happens before the drawing date.
Thanks for your support.

Gents,

Donations in for 64 tickets so far. Still have plenty of tickets left to support the SE MO forts connected with Marmaduke's Raid event. Thanks to all who have supported the raffle so far, to all of those who are still on the fence, go ahead and jump in. You could win a federal kit from W&W for a mere $5 donation!!!
Thanks,

Gents,

76 tickets sold and payment received . The drawing will be 10/31/07 unless all are sold by then. Thanks to all who have participated so far, and remember, for the price of a lunch at
McDonalds you could be the winner of a great Federal kit made by W&W! So if you are on the fence, just drive past Micky D's and put your lunch towards historic preservation. It'll turn out to be heart healthy as well:).

Thanks, hope to see you all in the field soon.

Re: Preservation Raffle for Misssouri Forts

Bank wanted too much to cut a cashier's check or money order for just three tickets -- so I sent you a $20 check for four chances instead!

C'mon, lads. Don't miss out.

Re: Preservation Raffle for Misssouri Forts

Hi Gents,

Just a reminder, the drawing will be October 31st, 100 donations for tickets to win the W&W Federal Kit have made it to me. Thanks to all who have participated so far! I would still like to sell 200 more to meet my goal of 300. If we can reach that mark it would be great, only 26 days to go till I draw the winner. If you haven't jumped in and you want to just send me a pm! Thanks, and good luck to all who are in.

Re: Preservation Raffle for Misssouri Forts

Friend Robert,

How goes the raffle? Latest bank statement says you haven't cashed the check I sent in mid-September. Am I "in" or what?

If the personal check didn't strictly meet the criteria asking for money orders, I would be ok with you just donating it to the cause (although of course I would much rather have the four chances to win an arsenal pack or even the new uniform!). Is there a 503b number or some such I.D. for the preservation project?

Thanks and good luck with this endeavor!

Re: Preservation Raffle for Misssouri Forts

Hi Paul,
I have talked to Frank Aufmuth about the tax exempt status of the group that cares for the fort, yes they have a tax exempt number. Although I don't have it, I'm sure it wouldn't be hard to get if you need it. Let me know.
Thanks to all who participated.
