We are going to have a raffle at the con! Every attending member will automatically get their name in once. We'll draw a few names throughout the con depending on how many prizes we get donated for it. If your name is drawn, you get your pick of any item still in the box.
What we need are donations! Anything of value to attendees is fair game. This could include things like:
Rack your brains and raid your closet, then make a pile of stuff to bring with you. You do NOT need to purchase anything for this raffle; save your money for travel expenses! Used items are totally acceptable. But if you have things you are willing to part with, this could be a great chance to get them into excited, new hands.
Please note there will also be a swap table in the con suite. This is where anyone can set out items (fannish or otherwise) and anyone can come snag them for free, first come first serve. (The spirit of the thing is you give something to take something, but it's not monitored or anything. If you see something you want, you just take it.) So, typically things of low value (buttons, magazines, posters, discs, pictures, mixtapes, etc.) go on a swap table while things of higher value ($10 or more) go into a raffle.
If you have even 1 thing you can donate to either the raffle or swap table, however small, that is terrific, thank you! Don't be shy; any ideas you have would be great. (Someone will want it.) If you're not sure if something you have would be better suited for the raffle or the swap table, bring it along and ask me, or you can post your question here.
Thank you for helping make the con that much more awesome
