Charity Raffle FAQs
It’s easy: one dollar per chance to win an item. You put your ticket in the item that you want, so you don’t have to worry about getting a Snuggy when you really wanted the iTunes gift card. One buck, one chance, one item. The goal for Weetacon VI’s raffle is to raise $1200 $1500 (last year, we managed to raise $1147, but this year we have 25% higher attendance), but wouldn’t it be amazing to hit 2000 or dare I say 2500? Can we do it? I think we can do anything we set our minds to, but I’m excited to find out! The most important thing is getting enough raffle items to ensure that everyone has something in the raffle to push them toward getting more tickets!

Might there be more Salty Crack Goodness from the UP this year? I’m almost out of the stuff I won last year (I think it was Scotty’s contribution)- it instantly became our favorite BBQ seasoning.
Poppy, Scotty and I just talked about that last week, actually, and both Scotty and I are out. Sadly, you physically have to go to this guy’s shop in Escanaba, Michigan, so unless one of our Michigan or Canadian attendees take the long route, I don’t have much hope for seeing any Bushey’s seasoning on the raffle table.
Drat. Oh well – my blood pressure thanks you even if I don’t.
I just got back from the fabric store and I’m going to have a quilting marathon. All new for this year…one 54″ square extra warm fleece backed quilt. Can I get it finished in just 9 days? I hope so.
[…] that makes the world a better place somehow. One of my attempts at adding to the bottom line is the Weetacon Charity Raffle. It started three years ago when I had an idea while writing a blog post for Elastic Waist, during […]
