A Fund Raising Raffle (please read)

hello everyone,
I have been talking to John R about this for some time now and he gave me the go ahead to post this. Here is whats going on. My brother in-law John has been diagnosed with terminal lung cancer. He has NEVER smoked a thing in his life, EVER.The doctors are sure it's from second hand smoke.The cancer is in it's fourth stage and advancing extremely fast. My sister and John have two girls ages 4 and 2 who are having a tough time understanding the situation. On 10/3/03 there is going to be a fundraiser held in which i would like to make a donation to from a fund raiser held here on www.striped-bass.com . Before i describe whats up for raffle and the cost for chances i want to assure you that this will be moderated by John R and all moneys would be collected by John R. After the raffle John R has agreed to cut a check to "The Emma and Rebecca Ingrassia Education Trust Fund" in the name of www.striped-bass.com and it's members.
OK now here is what i would like to offer. All items are Delta and under 6 months old


9" band saw (bs100)
10" compound mitre saw (ms250)
midi lathe (la200)
10" drill press (dp200)
6" grinder (gr150)

i have the boxes for most but have the manuals and parts list's for them all. they are all in mint condition.
John and i have agreed that 10$ for one chance and 3 for 25$ would be a reasonable cost. we have also agreed that it would be best to leave it up to the members on how to go about it. I paid about $700 for all of them brand new. If there was enough response and interest i will drive all the tools to John R's house before the raffle started to make everyone a little more comfortable.
Thank You for spending time to read this and Thank You john for helping/allowing me to post on this
THANK YOU EVERYONE
Mike Sciarini
