THIS IS A FUNDRAISER, NOT A RAFFLE! For legal reasons, please refrain from referring to it as such. Thanks!
The cat's out of the bag. This fundraiser is for the one and only...TBone, our good friend John. John recently endured a near death illness and incurred significant medical expenses. This fundraiser is to help alleviate that burden. John's a great guy and contributes regularly to this site. This is a way that we can all give back to the community and do something good for someone in need.
John, all I have to say to you right now is, "Shut up and take it"You will accept this gift, and you will like it, lol. We know you're not one to ask for handouts, but this is something we want to do for you.
As you already know, the saw is a brand new Jonsered 2253. This is the equivalent of a Husky 550XP, only prettier! I did some minor mods to it, then Randy gave it a real massaging. New, this saw would run you at least $500 + $275 for mods. Don't be shy with your donations! Remember, it's going to a great cause.
First of all, I'm taking no credit for this fundraiser. This was the brainchild of the "Do I need to start a fight" thread guys, but in particular, Mastermind and Roncoinc. They privately raised the funds to purchase both new saws. Everything that comes in during this fund raiser will go directly to John. Stihl 041S has offered to pay the cost of shipping. Randy donated the porting.
As before, you get one chance of winning this saw for every $10 that you donate. If you donate $10, you get your name in the drawing one time. If you donate $200, you get your name in the drawing 20 times. I will be keeping track of all donations DAILY.
MAKE SURE that you put your Arborististe username in the Display Name field when you donate! There is a checkbox that you can check if you choose to hide the amount that you're giving. Please do not make your name anonymous.
You do NOT need a PayPal or WePay account in order to donate. All you need is a credit card. If you choose to give cash, you can PM me for my mailing address. Again, please be sure to include your AS name!
I will announce the date and time of the drawing at a later time. Look for it to be in a couple weeks.
