When you say 1/4 of the tickets, do you mean you haven't sold 100 or you haven't sold 250? Any update on numbers? And if you don't sell 350, are you still going to hold a raffle?

Good luck

We are having the raffle no matter what, because we have already sold so many tickets. Also I think we have already sold over 350, but we are hoping to get to 500 so that we get some more funds.

Re: Win a SEGway!

We were talking about doing the same think about raflling off tickets for a segway. I think if we do we are going to do a XT I think thats the one. Which ever one is the off-road one. If we do do it I'll ask our mentor if we can sell tickets outside of the school. If we do I'll let y'all know some if anyone of y'all are interested y'all can buy a ticket. I'll let you know as soon as I find out something.

I'm not sure if there would be as much as a market for the XT as there would be for a p-series or I-series. XT loses all urban transportation practicality; it can't go on sidewalks, its humungous, etc). Unless you live in a rural area with lots of ATV areas (or similar), I wouldn't recommend it. Even then, it would be difficult to sell many here on Chief Delphi. Also, if someone on CD wins, do you know how much shipping would cost? An XT weighs 260 pounds.

Just my 2 cents

-Daniel

Red face Re: Win a SEGway!

The fact about raffles are, nearly all of them must be legally registered with your state. If you claim that your drawing is to be held for April 1, then it has be drawn for April 1.

I don't think they will be able to extend the length of the raffle.

Re: Win a SEGway!

wow it must be hard to do things like that then.
Over ehre all we have to do is say we are going to do a raffle and thts its. we organised one, collected prizes and then jus tdid it in school one day. We had to keep postponing due to other events, and had no bother with doing that

Re: Win a SEGway!

The drawing was done at Atlantic Technical Center by the Booster Club of robotics (parents). At the same time the raffle was taking place some of the team members were at the Palmetto regional. We just got back from South Carolina and I still dont know what the wining number was, if i speak to a member of the booster club I will post here today, if not then I will do it tommorrow after school since at school I will find out who won.

Once again thanks to all the participants and good luck.

Dave

That may be well and good. But officially you must register with your state that you are hosting a raffle whether it be just within the school. Since a raffle is a form of gambling, you must register with your state just to make it legit.

Just a suggestion for the future.
