Chamber Evening Raffle Prize and Blind Auctions
Value of the 23 Evening Raffle Prizes and Auction Items as of May 12, 2008:
 $15,699

The Chamber Evening Raffle is open only to those who actually attend this event , since one of the rules is that you have to be present to win. But don't lose sight of the fact that this is an important facet of the overall fundraising effort, since every dollar raised makes our Chamber stronger and that's got to be a good thing.

Generally the raffle will break down this way:
  • PICK-A-PRIZE RAFFLE - We call out a number and the winner gets to choose his/her prize from the list of what‘s still available. This way, we know that you‘ll win something that you actually want and can use.

  • BLIND BID AUCTION - Sort of like a Silent Auction but you can't see how much others have bid. Encourages you to make your best bid first and saves you time since you don't have to keep running back to the table to see if someone's outbid you.

Remember that you receive 5 raffle tickets when you purchase your Chamber Evening ticket. And we'll give you plenty of opportunities (and encouragement and arm-twisting) to buy more raffle tickets while you’re there. Total value of the evening raffle prizes will be somewhere in the range of $10,000 and should include regulators, BCs, computers, a complete gear set, and more.

Don't forget that it's all designed to insure the financial footing our Chamber which needs to be available to us on a 24/7/365 basis. Every dollar you contribute, whether that's through the raffle, the event, or a straight donation to the Chamber Challenge, goes to a good cause and is much appreciated.

If you are a Scuba Diving Equipment Manufacturer and would like to donate equipment to our Chamber Day 2008 Raffles and Blind Auctions, our Prize Donation page describes how to proceed.

Remember that you will NEED to be present at Chamber Evening to win a Chamber Evening prize.
