We do a raffle for a Laptop computer, $800 value, $5 tickets. Capped at 1000 tickets. We got to the 1000 ticket mark in 2003, but this year, we've only sold about 300 tickets so far. We have a lot of young team members who don't go out in the community to sell. Either way, raffles are a great way to fundraise, just make sure you follow all the state laws.

Believe me are ok with the state. From the time we filled out the paper work the first time until we got permit to go ahead with raffle it was about 5 weeks. The paper work was sent back and forth about four times. Each time we sent it back someone different than the time before would see something different. Same questions was posed to two different people and got completely different answers. The right hand does not know what the left hand is doing. That is a typical state thing. I know I own my own trucking business and have to deal with DOT police all the time. You can line up three DOT police ask the same question and get three different answers.
