****** BWA's Second Annual Food Bank Raffle ******
 
http://www.blueworldaquatic.com/pictures/EFB1.jpg

Yes, you heard it. Thanks to BlueTang<3 (Wes), he asked if we were going to do the raffle again. Wes & Kayla were most than generous last year, and I wish to thank them for their contribution this year also.

After a little thought (about 2s), I told him yes.

So I am pleased to announce BWA's Second Annual Food Bank Raffle.

I will be canvasing some companies and customers for donations for this draw again.

Only a few things we will have to change, this year. As I was told by PayPal we cannot use them unless we jump through their hoops that they hold up (This was beacuse someone complained to them about it last year, and even gave them the link to the thread. We know who you are! :twised:)

So tickets this year can be paid for in the following methods;
  • In Person
  • Via CC#
  • Mail (cheque)
  • EMT (Electronic Money Transfer)

The total for the Food Bank was $825, with BWA matching amount, totaling $1650 for 2010.

We will also be setting up a donation bin at the store for the Edmonton Food BAnk this year also.

BlueWorldAquatic 11-27-2011 04:44 AM

Beleive me I know that warm feeling that you get by giving a helping hand to those who need it. We hold a yearly draw at one of the clubs in Calgary through dinner and dance night to give as a donation to a different charity.

BlueWorldAquatic 11-27-2011 05:51 AM

Thats in the past, we set up the raffle too quickly, and I blame Wes for all the problems that I had to deal with (no he wasn't the tattler, he was the main contributor of the raffle prize :biggrin:)

Hope we can at least match our contribution this year, the $1650 was wel appreciated.

Ken - BWA

BlueTang<3 12-01-2011 02:36 AM

Got my tickets!

According to the online map program I am 2073.5 km's away from Blue World with an estimated travel time of 21Hr & 29min's drive.

I am challenging anyone further away than me to beat that benchmark by buying tickets.

Damn it no PayPal!! I want 8 tickets but can't do CC or EMT, I will have to figure something out.

Ken, do you think there might be interest in a $200 credit towards a tank stand?
