Hey, even I have a few tickets!

No guns for you, Neil.  You get the trip, I get the guns  ;D ;D ;D

Got my tickets today and they are lucky numbers!!

I have 2211 through 2214.

Well, 22 has been my lucky number since 1964 so all 5 have that number.

My birthday is March 14, so the 14 it covered also.  My Mom's birthday was March 12, so 12 is covered also.

Since our our birthdays were a day apart we always celebrated on March 13th, so we got that one too.

My Dad's birthday was April 11, so with that one, they are all covered..


My advice is to sell your tickets so someone before the word gets out that I'm gonna win  ;D ;D ;D

Take care and good luck to all the other ticket holders....you're gonna need it  :D

Will get the pictures up later today. The drawing was yesterday at 1pm. The grand prize winner was Johnny Williamson, one of the second year gunsmithing students. He was really excited! The second prize went to Jackie Miller from Burlington NC. The president of the gunsmithing club sold her the ticket. The 3rd prize went to David Wells who, I believe, is one of the regional Friends of NRA members. Our senior instructor sold the ticket. At final count there were only 100 unsold tickets. Thank you to everyone that participated. You helped me make my goal of selling 80 tickets and not having to pay my own way to SHOT show 2012. The money we raised will also help to purchase supplies and tools for our program.

Congratulations to the winners! 

Glad you get to go to SHOT, I admit at being a bit jealous  ;D
