From all the guys that said they would buy from here, you must be almost sold out.... How many tickets left?? I still haven't seen mine come in the mail yet sir, about how long should they take to get here??

From all the guys that said they would buy from here, you must be almost sold out.... How many tickets left?? I still haven't seen mine come in the mail yet sir, about how long should they take to get here??

Not even half sold out yet (136 sold including pending personal cheques). My estimation is that only 55-60% of members who said they would buy tickets have actually followed through. The majority of mail ins were recieved Wednesday and Thursday of last week and all stubs from tickets sold are in the mail except for the 1 request I got today. I would guess most stubs should be returned by the end of this week for anyone who mailed cert. cheques and MOs last week. However, I have recieved several personal cheques (18 requests) and I have to wait for a minimum 5 business for them to clear before mailing out stubs.
Mailing time to get here has been 2 - 5 business days judging from the postmarks with the fastest being just 1 business day.

Thanks again to all those who have purchased tickets

[diamonddave]

Wow!! That is pretty surprising...... Come on guys lets man up and buy the tickets that we said we would, you will never find a deal like this again. 25 bucks for a chance to win trip of a lifetime for some people! If you start to think you are going to come up shy send me a pm and I will do my best to round up a bunch of guys here in Rocky to buy some. Have you let any of the other group in on this deal??

I expected this to sell out quickly, I know I got my 8 because I was sure they would fly. I'll put the bug in a couple buddies and see if I can sell 8 more, I'll just get them from sugar creek this weekend. Keep us posted and I'll try selling more.

Come on guys lets sell this out quick for alpineguy!

Getasheep......thanks for your efforts in supporting Ken's group in Sundre. I will not be at the shop this weekend due to some bear camp commitments. I will be in the shop tomorrow night and then next week aswell and would be happy to get tickets out to you then if that works.

For those that would like to get tickets from my shop, please phone before hand at (403)346-5617 to ensure that I will be there. This is a tough time of the year to be at the shop all the time due to personal plans for bear hunting. I will do my best to ensure that you get tickets for this great opportunity.

Sounds good, I'll give you a call.

[alpineguy]

Is there anyone on Facebook that could spread the Raffle info?

[Rather Be Hunting]

My check for 4 is in the mail.:)
RBH

[diamonddave]

I will check with my wife, but does the Horizon society have its own face book page? If it does then we all could share the link and pass it on?? I really don't know how to do it, but some guys on here must be able to figure it out.....

No, we don't have a Facebook page. I'm sure someone on here is though and once it got started i'm sure it would spread fast.

Thanks again DD

[diamonddave]

I will post it up when I get home, and see what we can do. No thanks needed Ken.

[diamonddave]

I just recieved my tickets in the mail, thanks Ken!! I will be selling some tickets here for Ken, so as soon as I receive them I will post on here and let everybody know where and when they can pick them up!!

[getasheep]

[Lefty]

Got my ticket in the mail today as well. Thanks for sending it. Hope you guys do well with your projects.

[alpineguy]

Well we are now just over half sold out!! Thanks to all who have bought tickets so far!!
If you are in the Edmonton/Spruce Grove area and need tickets PM Bearen09 next week, he will have a book available.
Just for your info Grande Prairie seems to have bought the most tickets by region. So my question is..... are you guys from Edmonton, Red Deer and Calgary areas going to let GP out do you????
A sell out will guarantee this raffle will happen again next year!
Get the word out to everyone you know.

[BackPackHunter]

what about one person in a region buying the most tickets?
Cause i think Red Deer won that ;)

[Doodle30]

Hey

If I can figure out how to do a online bank transfer. Is one of the ticket holders willing to accept the transfer, complete the ticket, and email me a copy.

Yes I know I am asking for alot but I have a new born son at home that is taking up my spare time. Turbo made hiself available but my schedule is to wonky to book a time with him.

Funny thing is I am not even sure if I will be able to use the hunt. It's a great prize that come along in the worst possible year. I did want to support the effort by a forum member to support a great charity. Nice Work Alpine Guy.
