    I certainly would like a chance to win a new Gator for $50.00 here is my problem, I see that you are not really a member of this forum, you joined and posted 3 posts about this raffle and I see that you edited your original post to change the purpose of the raffle. If I remember correctly the original post about the raffle stated it was to benefit a family in your area that suffered some type of tragedy....maybe a house fire, to be honest I don't remember all the details, but I do know that the original post stated the proceeds of the raffle was to benefit a local family.

    Sorry, I had every intention of buying a ticket or 2, but now I am a little, no a lot, hesitant of sending a check. Good luck with you raffle.

    Dan, You are correct, that IS what the original post said. Afterwards, we found out that, as a non profit, we cannot LEGALLY do a fundraiser for a private individual. We had everything for the raffle already, so we went ahead with it as a fundraiser for the non profit. I'm very sorry you feel this way, we are not trying to pull the wool over anyone's eyes. As far as me not being a member? I believe I joined the same way you did. I thought Gator enthusiasts would like to know about the raffle.

    Also, a private individual cannot legally hold a raffle in Georgia. You have to be a Non Profit.
