With the OK from Boss Dog & help from Jeff Pearce,and of course KnifeDogs.com , I would like to take this time to announce,that we will be doing a fundraiser,here on the site,in the Auction - Raffle sub forum.
My wife & I are team members in our Church's team, for Relay for Life ,here is a link ,in case you have not heard of this :
http://www.relayforlife.org/relay/
In our town,the event is heald in the park,next to my home,so for me,it's real close to home.Last year's event here,raised over $ 100,000.00 , and those funds will go directly to the American Cancer Society.
I already have a few pledged knives from some makers I know,who,are good as GOLD,to donate.Thank You guys .
We are targeting January 2010 through May 2010 . We would like to hear your thoughts on this. We were tossing the idea of a few auctions,as well as raffles.
I'll add to this post as I get more info,to share.Thanks in advance,to everyone involved here.

Look here for updates
OK,got a few things hashed out,with Tracy & Jeff...
In the raffle forum,just like this,there will be a sticky,at the top.This is where I'll post updates,just like this here,but in there,the updates will be about the actual auctions/raffles,completions,etc..This fundraiser will have it's own set of rules,posted in that sticky,too.
Then,as the knives & donations are raffled and or,auctioned,they will be done with thier own threads,there.
This is so,all other auctions/raffles,can continue,simultaneously,with this fundraiser.
I'm most sure,It'll go from Jan. 2010,to May,2010
I have 6 knives in the works,so far,by accomplished makers.There possibly will be a few others.
Tracy & Jeff may add here,as well,as we put it together
I hope you follow & I am not confusing
It's going to be a good one,though
Thanks Everyone,
