Raffle information for the frag swap on the 23rd

mr294 · #1 01/03/2005, 11:59 AM

As many of the regulars may have noticed the raffle is becoming a regular event at our frag swaps. This time around things are going to be a bit different. Instead of everyone getting one free entry, tickets will be on sale for $2 each or 3 for $5, and you are free to enter as many times for as many items as you would like. All the money collected from this raffle is going to be donated to the American Red Cross to help aid victims of the recent tsunami. A donation jar will also be present for those who are interested in giving aid, but don't want anything up for raffle.

So far Mike from Strictly Marine has offered a $50 gift certificate for his store. Any one else interested in donating an item for raffle, please PM me or post here. Thanks!

c'mon, people!!! There won't be any goodies unless people kick in.

I'll be bringing a 1" frag of blue tort to put in.

I could probably come up with a couple zoo frags, but not sure if I'm invited. Not sure if anyone is interested in zoos because of the sps craze but that's all I have besides lps.

I'd certinally buy a couple of raffle tickets for some zoos!! There are some of us new *guys* that have PC or newish tanks that are mostly softie and LPS. Bring them ON.

Note if someone else wins these I'm expecting a finders fee of at least 1 polop!! (kidding)

I'll chip in another exclusive Reef Central logo item.

I still haven't gotten my mug from the last raffle

morphx · #9 01/10/2005, 12:03 PM

Sounds like a great idea!

And I'd love to look at some zoos.

I'm kinda' unclear how this frag swap works. Does everything go to the raffle? Will we be selling or just trading? The reason I ask is so I know what to bring. Thanks.

The Master of Bass

manderx · #11 01/10/2005, 04:07 PM

i'll toss in a thing or two or three if i make it.

Charlie Davidson · #12 01/10/2005, 04:42 PM

Bass Master, ( hope I am not jumping-in, I am a newbie too) we are just a group of people that want to meet others that love the same hobbie as ours! good people meeting good people! a frag meeting is really no more than that!
Many people bring frags to exchange and/or sell. Zoos are allways welcome I love them!!! what colors do you have?

SunDragon · #13 01/10/2005, 05:04 PM

Allright, ill toss in a 3"-4" rose anemone. But im not bringing him to the meet, you will have to come pick him up at the house if you win.

Bass Master · #14 01/10/2005, 06:38 PM

I have some lime green one's that I can frag - maybe some solid orange one's that I got from jazzyreef and some mint green that I got from SunDragon. I may be able to bring more but not sure.

AQUAN8TOR · #15 01/10/2005, 08:41 PM

Hey, Brandon-----answer your messages every once in a while and you'd have gotten your mug already.....still in bubble wrap in my car.

cmoresps · #16 01/11/2005, 03:00 AM

If its going to a good cause, $100 gift certificate to Sea Biscuits, good anytime through 2005

mr294 · #17 01/11/2005, 09:19 AM

The 23rd Is MY Birthday!!! Do I get s special gift?? Just kidding..sounds like fun...might have to get sum info and see what this is all about!

Atlantis Aquariums · #19 01/14/2005, 11:51 PM

I'll will donate a $100 gift card to the store to help raise some more money to donate. A good friend of mine in the the saltwater industry lost two family members in the storm. Both were collectors over in the region. Some of the corals and fish I have recieved were chosen by them. Country Boy you can have $25 for your Birthday.
