Michelle's Raffle

As you all know, October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month.  This is a cause near and dear to the Academy.  So the Royal Academy of Bards would like to ask all it's readers to please click on the link on the "what's new" page for the Breast Cancer Site and help provide free mammograms to everyone who needs one.  

We also would like to announce a raffle to help raise money for the family of Michelle DeLaRosa.  We would like to help defray some of the costs of the medical bills.

Below you will find a listing of the prizes which will be randomly lotted into 25 mystery boxes.  Tickets for this main raffle will be $1 each.  We have some very rare and unique items in the mix.  We also have a killer inventory of signed novels (many out-of-print).

The RAOB would like to thank all those who donated items for the raffle...
Y'ALL ROCK!
 
In addition, we have a special second raffle.  SX Meagher and Nene Adams are both offering to name a character in their next book for the lucky winners of these drawings. The tickets for this raffle will be $5 each.
 
Tickets for both raffles may be purchased via Paypal  (PHIL728@aol.com) please clearly specify in the transaction:
1) that it is for Michelle's Raffle
2) exactly how many tickets of each kind you would like to purchase
3) your email address
 
I will acknowledge via email (within 48 hours) receipt of your payment/purchase and will email you your raffle ticket numbers.
 
If you wish to pay via personal check...they can be sent to me at:
Phyllis Schudde
1514 Valparaiso Blvd
Niceville, Florida  32578
 
IMPORTANT: please write 'Michelle's Raffle' on the outside of the envelope.
 
Please also include a piece of paper, in with the check, with the following information on it:
1) that it is for Michelle's Raffle
2) exactly how many tickets of each kind you would like to purchase
3) your email address
 
Again, I will acknowledge via email receipt of your payment/purchase and will email you your raffle ticket numbers.

Drawings will be held on November 1st.

GOOD LUCK EVERYONE...c'mon out and take a chance or twelve. <.g.> It's all for a terrific cause.  
 
We Miss you Michelle
