    OK, this has got to close. I'll give it thru this week to receive any late senders but will draw the "winner" on Saturday.

    The real winner is The Githens Center and thanks to everyone for donating to the resident charitable organization of our longtime CP member, George Grand. He continues to support it thru the vinyl sales in the Flea Market in honor of his lovely Tiffany.

    Good luck everyone!

    Around $500 I believe. I'd have to snap open the envelope again. Not too shabby for a loose raffle.

    That's friggin awesome. I wish I could be there to see the smiles at the Center. When I went with George once to give a check, I can't remember ever feeling so good as to when I saw the smiles and gratitude of the folks there. The Githen's Center is a great charity to give to help keep them going.

    This forum just keeps giving and giving....especially from newer members and that's outstanding. The PayPal folks are easy and entered, as I can write you in on the tickets. 22+ ppl have donated.

    We'll have a winner announced by Sunday.

    Mark, I gotta tell you, I reread your OP and I really found it written very well especially when addressing the amounts donated. Good job!

    Thanks Joe.

    I know that this is a weird "karma" in a way but it's for my friend George, whom I've known dearly since 2003. I won't get sticky as it makes me too emotional, yes, dorokusai(Mark :D) has feelings....sometimes but I thought it was a nice gesture for my friend.

    Like I said previously, give a little, give a lot, give nothing but words....all of it is positive....but hurry because I'm ready to get this envelope mailed and a winner announced. haha...but not really, hurry.

    You want something to cry about whiner, I'll give you something to cry about .....

    I am absolutely convinced that when the proceeds of your raffle, get added to the proceeds from what I and others might raffle off at Lou's, two things will happen.

    1. Calendar year 2010 will monetarily be the best year we've had since Polk and AK MORE THAN got behind Project X.

    1a. This will be the first year where total donations to Githens from both Polk and AK for the calendar year will EXCEED $10,000.

    See me in late December '010 and if I'm lyin' I'm dyin'.

    There, cry about that.

    That would be fantastic George. 10K from a simple, internet based effort....pretty solid and a testimony to folks getting together. You put a lot of heart behind everything you, and the folks at Audio Karma do for the Githens Center. I'm just a bystander.

    P.S. I'm going to punch you in the face @ Polkfest.
