That is interesting... I saw it, but only one copy.

They showed as being 14 minutes apart when I noticed, too. I thought, "How did she manage that?"  I figured multi-tasking was to blame, but seems not. Can't tell if it was something weird with the forum or something weird with my browser. 

Cherany just didn't want me to think you were awesome..:unsure:

Conspiracy!  I want all the awesome comments for myself, so I go around deleting compliments that aren't meant for me. :EvilGrin:

Trickster!  And here I thought you were more the "share the love" type... guess you never can tell eh :)

Yeah but all the cool kids are on the party bus!  Would be happy to help. Let me make sure I can rearrange the Saturday AM stuff and then I will coordinate with you on the rest.

 

Nope not true I am not on it :highfive:

Not sure about all the "cool kids". I made it on and I am far from "cool" I think. At least that is what my son tells me!

Also, I was thinking that since April 15th (usually) is tax day there is no better way to recover from Uncle Sam vacuuming out my wallet than to spend some money on my tank!

Time for another raffle prize!! Our second stop of the tour will be Golden Basket Reef. This used to be the best kept secret in the Portland area. He's primarily an online store and nationally known but just wait until you see his shop in person. It's actually not a shop. It's a warehouse of coral with tanks and tanks of corals!!!:drool:

Rudy will be giving away a 6 pack of Zoas!

:clap:

 

Remember we are not selling raffle tickets. Just show up and you get one. Become a supporting member and you get 2!

So have you ever considered letting those members, possibly only supporting members buy tickets for some of these meeting giveaway prizes?? Living in the Seattle area makes it tough to come for meetings, but it sure would be nice to be able to participate in drawings (at a cost of course). Just wondering if it's ever been considered. Like being able to pay for an 'absentee' ticket to an event such as the party bus. Club gets funds, distant members have a chance to participate.

I would have gladly paid $15 for an absentee ticket to the party bus to have a chance to win one of the cool prizes, and whatever raffle ticket prices there are if applicable.

Funny you mention this. I was just thinking about doing some sort of virtual forum raffle for those who work on the weekends or live too far away to make the meetings!! I was thinking of that today on my run! I don't like people being left out.

I like this idea as well.  Are you thinking a separate raffle for those that can't make it or add them into the mix for the "live" one.  I could see arguments both ways but, logistically, it would probably be easier to do them separately.  That might also preserve the in the excitement factor for the live one as you know someone in the room is taking it home.

I'm not planning on doing it this time. I was just thinking of this being some sort of bonus raffle for fund raising similar to how we do the auctions not related to the meeting just cool prizes where you do not need to be present to win. I literally was just thinking of this idea on my morning run today.

I just want to be a part of it all...its tough being so far away from the action. :teardrop:

I am going to try to come down for next month's meeting, to meet everyone.  I love Portland and it would be nice to come down for a night or a weekend.

I hear you. :unsure:Too bad you can't make this meeting. The next meeting is going to be towards Salem so a little further for you. It's difficult since we are so spread out to accommodate everyone that's why I was thinking an online raffle.  Video recording some of the talks would be nice too I just don't have the IT knowledge for that. Tried it once and couldn't get the video to upload  but I'm sure there are some folks that could help with that in the future.

I could help with that. I could set up my tripod and camera for the talk next month, which would make for a better video than cell phone recorded. Uploading shouldn't be any trouble. 

Online raffles sound good, too!  :thumbs:
