The 2018 Elf Khurafeh Shrine Sportsman's Raffle is in the books! The tent's down, Circus Park is cleaned up, and the prize letters are in the mail! The money's counted, and the bills are paid. We made a little bit of money on this, but you'll have to come to the Business Meeting to find that out!
We had about 700 people (an estimate because we forgot to start counting till it was too late) at Circus Park Saturday. By far the biggest crowd there in a long time. It was a site to see!
I want to thank everybody that worked to make this a great success. Ill. Sir John Berry who gave us the green light to run. Million Dollar Mike Z from Moslem for all the coaching and advise. Betty Kincaid who put endless hours of work and worry into this from the office. Ryan Stanley, Phil Brack, and Greg Cartwright who were there with me every step of the way working on this. Jeff and Laura Downing for all the tech support. All the ticket sellers, especially Pat Finnegan, Bob Gaffney, and Phil Gean who spent several weekends attending gun shows to sell tickets and promote our raffle. Randy's Guns for their 52 Card draw. The Clubs, Units, and groups who had raffles with us. And ALL the MEMBERS who supported and worked on this raffle. Also, all of our wives, and a couple husbands, who put up with our long hours, meetings, moods, and stress, and still love us.
Planning for next year is already underway. It'll be bigger and better, with more prizes and drawings. Plan to be with us April 6, 2019 for the Second Annual Elf Khurafeh Shrine Sportsman's Raffle.
Again, THANK YOU to everyone in Elf Khurafeh Shrine for helping to make this year's raffle a big success!
