I'm relaying this message.
Several folks have offered to contribute money to help John (AQUANUT) cover the financial burden of the ANNUAL TREASURE HUNTERS COOKOUT, but he refuses to accept money donations.
Fortunately, this is a democratic brotherhood and John (AQUANUT) has been out voted.
There is going to be a RAFFLE held at the cookout with the proceeds going to John (AQUANUT) whether he likes it, or not.
Raffle Tickets will be $1 each, or 6 for $5. The winning Raffle numbers will be called at 4 PM, at the cookout. You WILL have to be present to win. There will be some nice prizes for the Lucky winners
So far, Prizes that have been donated are, - a beautiful 5X7 Throw Rug, with a huge Skull & Cross bones pattern (value $85) - a 30" Porcelan Doll in Victorian dress (value $50) - a beautiful 3 foot high decorator Carousel Horse on a stand (value $70) - a Coral encrusted Shipwreck Artifact (value $?) - An elegant custom fitted ladies Toe Ring, fitted on site by Trudy Wood (value $20) - a bottle of 2008 vintage Greek wine, compliments of Treasure Works member, Konstantin Mantzouranis (value?)
If any one else would like to donate a prize for the RAFFLE, just post it here and bring it to the 3rd ANNUAL TREASURE HUNTERS COOK OUT. Saturday, April 30.
I am unable to post on TNET, so would someone please relay the RAFFLE message to the TNET Shipwreck board, and if anyone there wishes to donate a PRIZE, ask them to post it on TNET, and bring the prize to the COOKOUT. Many Thanks! Dell
