an unofficial announcement
to raise some much needed funds for my Relay for Life
i am going to offer a very unusual competition. For a small donation of $2 or more you get a ticket in a very unusual raffle. The winner of the "raffle" will have the opportunity of throwing a Meade ultra wide angle 2" series 5000 24mm eyepiece at a yet to be designated location at the camp. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to toss a $500 eyepiece and not feel the least bit guilty that it is yours!! with over 100 adults going I should be able to easily crack $100 for Relay for Life - and have the video rights to boot LOL. Come one come all
the throwing of the holy hand grenade will take place on Friday before dinner. I urge all IISAC participants to take part in this raffle and you have the opportunity to possibly hold a world record for the longest distance for throwing a Meade Series 5000 2" eyepiece
. and it will be officially recorded for posterity on video for all the world to see
please note the competition will not go ahead until I have surpassed $100 (donations of $2 or more are tax deductable - and I have a receipt book)
if nothing else this is an opportunity to register for ISSAC just to come and watch, and enjoy the weekend. think of it as the sacrifice to the weather gods
