As of this sunday evening, 29-January-2006, it looks like raffle commitments are up to $328 and over 2/3 of this is confirmed received.

I put up a better feedback form to handle raffle registrations.
I had some problems with the old form, if you have sent a check to the clinic, you should fill out the registration form so that I can send you a raffle number. If you didn't get a raffle number or a response back, please visit the site fill out the form.

The raffle ends on March 1st and the drawing will be done on March 15th, this gives time for payments to be verified by the clinic. It also gives the whistlemakers more time if needed.

Another whistle is being added to the prize pool.

It is an Acorn High-D with very nice hand engraving work.

Today, 28-February-2006 the raffle is at $849.14. It might just make $1000 by the closing on March 1.

If you're buying more than 1 ticket, there has been a computer glitch were it takes out shipping charges, I can return those to anyone or give it to the clinic as well. A single ticket purchase will not do this.
