THE 135th ANNUAL ANNIVERSARY TICKET DRAW

The Campaign Is Underway – NOW!!!!!!

Hi all. I’ll admit to two things. First, I am a horrible salesman. Secondly, I am – as the title suggests, blatantly and shamelessly appealing to you to buy something. At the same time, I’m hoping you’ll consider selling something as well. That ‘something’ is our annual Anniversary Ticket Draw.

Every year, the Club has one MAJOR fund raising effort. We are beginning that campaign right now. The funds earned through this Draw support the daily operations of our Club. As I’m sure you can appreciate, these costs are always increasing. Our fuel costs alone this year have seen a dramatic increase. Our Board has – and continues – to work hard to manage every dollar of income. However, as we do not have a large membership, we have had to become quite creative in seeking out additional sources of financial support.

The club is aging and requires constant maintenance. The new carpeting in our lounge area and the painting of our exterior façade are but two of the upgrades that were necessary this year in order for us to continue to provide a congenial and inviting atmosphere for our members. These types of upgrades are also essential if we want to maximize our appeal to our renters – a MAJOR source of income for us.

Then there is the unforeseen. The loss of our ice shed dehumidifier has required some scrambling on the Board’s part. A replacement is on order and will hopefully be installed in the next 2-3 weeks. This is a very expensive piece of equipment. To this point, we have raised about 60% of the funding required and are seeking out further assistance for the rest.

Thus, our Anniversary Ticket Draw is an essential component of our funding. On this basis alone, I am appealing to you to support our fund raising effort. The tickets sell for $50.00 each. Cash prizes will be awarded. First prize is $5000.00. The remaining prizes are all listed on the ticket itself. The tickets are available at the Bar at the Club.

This year, that draw will be held on May 26th at the Curling Club. The local dance band, Kintyre, will be performing. I spent New Year’s Eve listening and dancing (a sight to behold for sure!!!) to their music. It was a wonderful evening. So, if can, join us for the dance, the Draw and the fun!

We are appealing to all members to BUY and SELL some of these tickets. If each of us bought one ticket and sold two others, we could all but sell out the 600 available tickets. And that is our goal!!! So please, the Board is appealing to the club membership to get behind us in this fund raising effort, so that we can continue to provide a quality curling product to the Club and to the community.
