DO WANT. Only thing is I don't feed whole prey yet (not enough money to add it in to their diet now, and no freezer space since we live with my bf's parents- not to mention his mom would just about die if she knew there were rodents in the freezer ;D). I would probably give that to someone that could use it (someone else on the forum). Scrivener's Retreat! My guys still have and play with the plush meat pack set that I bought a while back (maybe 2 or 3 years ago...holy cow ). Although, they have taken a pretty good beating, they still have held up fine ;D

It looks like i might be too late to contribute a raffle item..... I have a Snoopy's Snuggler's bedding set I plan to donate...I remembered the raffle as being in MARCH
Can I donate the bedding to a raffle at the show? It will probably raise more $$$ at the show than it will adding it late to a raffle that's already running.
(there's a picture of the set below -assuming it attaches OK)
I know that the cost to get a show going is NOT CHEAP. And the effort that goes into all this is utterly daunting unless you have several people helping and a lo of time to pull things together. You have to rent a place, You have you buy the awards. The judges are paid,- they deserve every penny of it - there is NO slack time! You have to get sponsors for the classes etc. etc. etc.

Want to thank everyone that donated for this online raffle, the raffle for our show.... and also everyone whom bought tickets!
Your contribution is helping us tremendously! The raffle is helping us raise much needed funds for the ring sponsors. Because we are a newer club and its our first show, getting title sponsors have been extremely difficult. This raffle is helping us raise the money we need to put on a successful show.
So thank you! ;D
We still have 2 more title ring sponsors needed to purchase ribbons/trophies. If anyone is interested or knows a company that would want to sponsor one please email me at ncferretclub@yahoo.com Its also a great way to advertise, you get the company name on all the ribbons and trophies, as well as 2 full page ads free in the show catalog, feature on our web site.

Cool!!! I will definitely email you. If you don't have any Snoopy's Snuggler bedding sets, you'll definitely want to keep this set when you see it. My kids are big, so they do not fit well in standard-sized bedding. Shaman cannot fit in a standard-sized round beds . And when they try to pile in together....well, the can't And the door flaps on the hanging cubes are great for darkness. Tonto likes to sleep in the tunnels too. -jennifer

Another thought, you should post regarding the raffle and also about the show and needing sponsors on the FML.

And I just ordered my first Snoopy's Snuggler bedding set in Jan. Its awesome!! excellent quality, so sturdy and well stitched, and also nice and big so it can easily fit the big hobs and multiple ferrets. Thanks so much!! Also I have emailed on the FML couple times, I haven't had much luck with it, got a couple responses for donating for the raffle, which is great too. I will be posting on FML again here this week.
