Sith Charity Ball and Raffle

[dancerjodi]

Hey Folks! Please find information on the Friday night Sith Charity Ball at http://2008.arisia.org/SithBall . There will be lots of cool things to see on opening night - we hope to see you there!

There will be raffle tickets for sale at the ball and at the 501st/Rebel Legion fan table on Saturday - all proceeds benefit the Make a Wish Foundation. Our drawing will be held at the 3:00 PM Fandom and Charity panel on Saturday (you do not need to be present to win - prizes will be claimed in the Ops office). Tickets will be 2/$5 except for some very cool special prizes which will have their own drawings (tickets for those prizes are $5 each). The list of prizes is quite impressive and is growing!

We will be away next weekend, but could I give you $20 for raffle tickets? I figure it's a donation, so if you don't want to raffle on our behalf, that's cool...

If you want to make a donation that's cool! Unfortunately I'm asking folks to buy tickets only if they are at the con (to actually claim their prize). I know I'll be too busy pulling 40+ names from a hat in a 10 minute period at a panel to keep track of other people's raffle tickets. Now, if you knew someone else who was going who could buy your tickets and keep track of them for you, there's nothing to prevent that. :) I know that Brian and I and the other 501sters will be crazy running around to take care of it.

Cool - I'll give you a donation Friday night. I was also thinking of offering a pet portrait package ($250 value) for the raffle, but looking at the list, I don't think I fit with all the coolness there! Everything seems just so geeky! LOL...

I think the pet portrait package sounds awesome! We should talk about this more Friday (perhaps do it as one of the special/targeted raffle pulls so that only folks with pets would enter)? Thanks!
