Last chance!

As many of you know, especially those who have read this entire blog, our local Rotary Club has had a rafflle with an exceptional prize - a ten day all expense paid vacation in Belize.  The prize includes flights from Miami or Houston to Belize, and several nights at a resort on Ambergris Caye, then transportation to and several nights at a resort in the western mountains, and finally transportation and several nights at a resort here in Placencia.  Includes a $100/day allowance for food, and more and more.  There are no blackout dates, and we would like the winner to take the trip within a year.

Here's the deal:  Tickets are $50 and can be purchased on line.   We originally were going to sell 1000 tickets, then have the raffle.  Ticket sales have not been very brisk, so we lowered it to 500 tickets.  Because the raffle is almost 2 years old, and we have now passed the break even point, we've lowered it again and are going to draw the name of the winner on Saturday, February 13th.  We are doing it at a local arts festival where we will be holding an auction to raise money.

That means the chances of winning are substantially higher than they were originally.  Those who have read this blog, and the comments thereto, may have read the comments of someone who said they had not received an acknowledgement of their ticket purchase.  In fact, we had acknowledged it at the time of purchase, but she had missed the e-mail, or it had gone into her junk mail folder.  The program is working fine, and the winner is going to have a wonderful trip!
