Airsofters for Haiti Raffle

    Hi guys,

    Over the next couple of weeks I will be running a raffle to raise money on behalf of my uncle, Kieran Tansey, who will be going to Haiti in April with Haven Partnership to build shelters and facilities for those displaced by the disaster there. Much more information is at http://www.havenpartnership.com/

    I have already had responses from a few airsoft shops who will very very generously be donating some great prizes for the draw.
    (If you are a retailer that I forgot to contact and would like to donate something please feel free to pm or email me)

    Tickets for the draw are €5 and the draw will be done in a couple of weeks in a public location.

    There are 2 ways to enter:

    This weekend I will be touring the sites of Dublin to sell tickets in person. I will be driving around on both Saturday and Sunday so hopefully I'll get to most sites.
    Bren in Fingal and Damo in Red Barn have also very kindly offered to collect as well but I should be able to get there in person.

    If you are not in Dublin or won't be out and about this weekend you can still enter. Go to https://www.havenpartnership.com/html/donate/donateonline.php and specify that you want to sponsor Kieran Tansey.
    Then email a screenshot of the final confirmation screen or receipt to haitiairsoftraffle@gmail.com along with your name and phone number and every fiver donated will count as a raffle ticket.

    On behalf of my uncle and I, thank you in advance for any support.
    If you have any questions at all, please post, pm or email.

    Jim

    Right, I'm mobile again so I can officially announce that the draw will take place this Saturday, the 27th, before the night game in the Orchard.
    I will be taping the draw and putting it on YouTube just in case there's a call of shananigans and I will contact the winners straight away.

    So you have until then to buy as many tickets as you like. Time permitting I will also do a quick fly-by Red Barn and the Orchard on Saturday afternoon.

    Thanks for the patience,

    Jim
