Dear ANPR Members,
We are renewing ANPR's traditional "super-raffle" as a fundraiser. This was a very popular activity in past years. As an ANPR member, you can "donate" for "tickets" for yourself and/or you can solicit donations for tickets from family, friends, or whomever, by sharing the raffle URL and asking them to enter your name in the "Give credit for my tickets to:" field, so you can get credit for the ticket(s). Or, you can seek donations from others in person, and then manually enter their information and payment into the dashboard.
There will be a $500 gift card prize with Amazon for the most donations for tickets by an individual, and a $100 gift card prize with Amazon for the person who donates for the ticket drawn for the "Grand Prize."
Although not a "Ranger Rendezvous" function as such, we will conduct the "drawing" on October 16, 2021 at the RR in Jacksonville, FL (presence at the drawing is not required); or if the RR is postponed this year because of the COVID-19 pandemic, we will do the "drawing" on that date anyway.
THE "FINE PRINT":
This raffle is being conducted by the Association of National Park Rangers (ANPR), a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization, at PO Box 151432, Alexandria, VA 22315. Prizes are either donated or are being funded by ANPR. The raffle will close at 12:00Noon EDT on October 16, 2021 and the drawing will be conducted on October 16, 2021 at 6PM EDT at Jacksonville, FL. You do not have to be present to win. No purchase or contribution is required to enter. If you wish to get a complimentary "ticket" without donating, please email bwade@anpr.org and one ticket will be entered in the drawing in your name. Prizes are NOT transferrable.
