The Club Stogie Troop Supporters have been running a raffle since February 17th to send cigars to the troops. Rules for the raffle can be found here. Those rules stipulate that for the raffle to take place we need to have 500 entries (2500 cigars). As of this post, there have been 340 tickets sold (1700 cigars represented).
The astonishing thing is that those 340 tickets only represent 91 members here at CS. Those 91 members have stepped up to the plate and promised to give of themselves to help others.
The more astonishing thing is that after a quick sort and look through the members list, I discovered that 1044 CS members have been on the board today or yesterday. That means that 953 of you have either not seen or ignored the raffle.
If we can't sell the remaining 160 raffle tickets, the raffle is off. The 91 generous members of CS who have ponied up their smokes for the troops are S.O.L. for the raffle. Please do what you can to support this wonderful cause. Time is running out, so do it today.
Quick numbers:
Raffle tickets sold - 340
Members represented in the raffle - 91
Members logged in today or yesterday - 1044
Percent of regular members represented - 8.7%
