    Sucks to hear that there is a lack of participation. Is this side raffle open to any other forums?

    My pennies on reaching out to other places. It would be much more personal if all the donations came from a place that knows Terry. He is a member here and on AS.

    Arboristsite is the one who started the Raffle/Auction for Terry, and they are attempting to raise $15,000 in the one raffle and have a side auction going on as well with a quilt (was over $400 last I seen), a 20" race chain (also over $400), and a couple bars for saws (also pretty high).

    Given the lack of participants, I wouldn't worry. There is 12 people other than Woodporn that are "In" so that's 13 total so far. If everyone that already bought a ticket? Bought another.... Then the odds go from a 1 in 25 chance? To about a 1 in 12 chance.

    I am still in he need of more tickets. I will buy several more if needed :) It's a good cause. One never knows when it will be them on the other end? So it's better to give now. Because if the good Lord deems you on the other side? You should be so blessed to have so many caring folks to come together and raise money. Open up the checkbooks folks. What's $25? Lots of people spend that much on unneeded frivolous things each week. :thumbs:

    Posted redirects to this thread in the Firewood Neighborhood and Off-Topic Forums. That should help gain exposure.

    WP, I'm working on a donation - gonna be a few days yet tho.

    Friday will be the 1/2 way point, I'd say wait 'till then. I don't think you'll have an issue getting them...
