And the WINNER is....

Thank you to all of you who turned out to watch our winner be drawn for the 2011 raffle!  I am so appreciative of all of your support. ;)

A huge congratulations goes out to ROBIN DAVIS!  She is the grand prize winner!  Debi Ganem was given your 5 crisp $100.00 bills to deliver to you!  Happy Thanksgiving!

Congratulations also extended to our runner up prize winners:

$25.00 Cheesecake Factory gift card:  Kory Druecker
$20.00 Taco Bell gift card:  Shannon Painter
$15.00 Applebee's gift card:  Tonya Risser
$10.00 AMC gift card:  Monica Michels
Gold Canyon Christmas scented candle: Nathan Wickham
Deluxe bath spa set:  Jan Wiley

A few names that were drawn for runner up prizes that would have won, if they had been present are:

Autumn Davenport (twice!)
Jasmine Freeman
Jean Spanko
Jennifer Mundy
Lisa Simmons

I still assert that if any of you all have the opportunity, you should:

A)  Have Autumn Davenport buy your tickets for you (She and her daughters are some of the "luckiest" people I know!)
B)  Buy your tickets through someone other than ME!

My son pointed out that although I sold 85% of the raffle tickets, Debi Ganem sold the winning ticket!  He tells me that next year he is buying a ticket from anyone but me! ;)

Thanks to all of you who participated through buying tickets, who showed up for the raffle, and who have otherwise supported us as we adopt this family this year!

We have raised $1100.00 for the family with the raffle ticket sales, and our Gold Canyon Candle fundraiser!  I am so blessed to be a part of a community of givers!  God bless you all!

Sincerely,

Becky Spanko, Debi Ganem, and the whole bunco bunch!

Raffle happening in 2 days!

Good afternoon all!

After collecting all unsold and canceled tickets, I have 11   tickets left!  If anyone is interested, please message me at:

spankos1@juno.com

We are looking so forward to blessing our raffle winner with $500.00 (or 50% of ticket sales...if all tickets are not sold)...and it will be just in time for the Holidays!

Raffle happens on Monday, November 21st at 8pm...at Starbucks on 67th avenue and the loop 101. ;)

It is a great time of grabbing a coffee, something sweet, and celebrating the blessings to both the adopted family, and the winner!

Hope to see you there!

Almost a sell out!!

Hi All!  Just an update that our raffle is in full swing.  Only one week until the drawing!

I have 13 tickets left for sale...there may be a few in addition to that from the other two gals who were selling thtem.  So we are CLOSE to being sold out!

As was the case last year, we will meet at Starbucks at 67th avenue and the Loop 101 to have the raffle pulled publicly.

Anyone who wishes to attend early to audit the ticket list and verify that their ticket made it in the box is welcome to do so.  We had two ladies come last year and double-verify that the list was correct and that all of the tickets were accounted for and actually IN the raffle.

I will arrive at approximately 7:30 and the raffle will be held at approximately 8pm. ;)

I will bring some fall goodies for you all to snack on while you grab a coffee and wait for the big announcement. ;)

Should you wish to order pies, pastries, or other baked goods for your Thanksgiving celebration, I will have a sign up sheet for that as well.

Thank you so much to those of you who have participated in any of the adopted family fundraisers...and thank you to all of the raffle ticket buyers!  We look forward to an exciting night of BIG blessings!

God Bless!
Becky & the Bunco team!

Welcome back givers! I am so blessed to be a part of the community of giving!

If you participated in the raffle we held last year, then you know what fun it wasto grab a Starbucks together, eat a slice of pie, and wait for the winner to be 
announced! ;)

Well, the RAFFLE is back! ;) 

We are raffling a $500.00 cash prize (you can purchase that big screen TV or whatever you wish!!)..just in time for Christmas!  (Only 100 tickets will be sold ...infact only 76 56  38 tickets remain...so your odds of winning are great!)  The proceeds 
from the raffle will go to help our adopted family...this year it is a wonderful 
family (single mom with 4 girls).  Tickets are $10.00 each.  

On Monday, November 21st, at 8:00 p.m. we will meet to draw the raffle at 
Starbucks on 67th avenue and just north of the loop 101. (I will be there early 
with treats and a couple of volunteers to audit the list.)  ;)  You do NOT need to
be present to win the grand prize, but you will want to be there to win the runnerup prizes! (You must attend to take those home...there will be gift cards, etc.)
You may purchase as many tickets as you wish, but hurry...the raffle just began 
and 60% of the tickets are already sold! ;)  There are 38 tickets remaining!
You can reserve and purchase tickets through any of our bunco group members.
What a complete joy to get to bless another family this year!  Stay tuned, because
the results of the Gold Canyon Candle fundraiser we already held...and other 
important adopted family details will be available soon!
Please join us this year...we will all be blessed as we Give Christmas Away!
