Went over with each sports clubs where they stand on getting raffle tickets in.  Drop-Dead turn in date will be Wednesday, January 12 from 7:00 p.m. – 9:00 p.m. in our regular booster meeting room.  If you are turning in tickets at that time expect to stay and help tally your tickets turned in.  If you can turn in earlier give Lana Brindle a call to make arrangements.  The sooner the better.  If tickets are later than Wednesday, you will have to deliver to Pete Lahr at central.  If that happens just deliver the stubs (get a receipt for how many you turned in) the money and who gets credit will be handled by Lana after the drawing.  The drawing is Monday evening.
