That time of year again

I began sending PMs to members who helped Tyler reach his goal of selling raffle tickets to benefit handicapped hunters last year. Those that I contacted suggested that I post it here on the open forum again, just like last year. Thanks to the generosity of the members here on the excalibur forum, Tyler exceeded his goal and was rewarded with a beautiful plaque donated by the North Carolina Handicapped Sprortsman Inc. and the North Carolina Wildlife Commission. He also received a fully guided turkey hunt for his efforts along with a custom box call. Most importantly, he learned to give. Well, it's that time again. The tickets cost a little more this year but there are a lot of nice prizes. Here's the raffle information that I copied off of a flier:

DONATION $20.00 PER TICKET

THERE WILL BE 6 DRAWINGS

WINNING TICKET'S HAS CHOICE OF GUN OR CASH

TICKETS ARE ELIGIBLE FOR ALL 6 DRAWINGS

DRAWINGS WILL BE HELD DECEMBER-12-2009

ONLY 600 TICKETS WILL BE SOLD

LIST OF GUNS

REMINGTON 30-06 WITH SCOPE OR $250 CASH

REMINGTON 270 WITH SCOPE OR $250 CASH

REMINGTON 870 EXPRESS OR $250 CASH

I really appreciate you guy's support. The money raised helps handicapped hunter all over our state to get the opportunity to get out doors again. To get your tickets either send me a PM or email me at [email protected]

Mike, I'm going to check on that tomorrow and will let you know. I do know that we will pay for the shipping but I'm not sure what is required on your end. If anyone know more about this, please chime in. I really hope to get the support of my Canadian friends but understand where your coming from. Hey, we can all use some extra cash

. I know....cash doesn't have a trigger

Time flies.

Let's make it a two-fer- fer -Tyler this year and rally around him for this great cause.
If it helps get just one person back to the woods and out doing something it's worth it.

I'm in little buddy.

Thank you all for buying tickets, we have sold 8 tickets so far. I know that time are rough but we just want to help provide a place for handicapped hunters to hunt.

Thank you,

Tyler.

You're on your way to selling a bunch of 'em, Tyler!

Thank you Mr. Grizz. Dad is finally going to let me join the forum but he said that Peter has to say it is ok first. I hope that I am old enough. I have plenty of tickets left.
