Title: David Grist Raffle
Post by: Graham Lee on June 27, 2014, 02:30:55 PM
I thought I would start a new thread with details about the raffle we are holding next week at the two day memorial lecture for David Grist.

We plan on holding a raffle at the two day event with 5 great prizes to be won, you can purchase tickets via Paypal so no matter where in the world you are you have the opportunity of winning some of the excellent prizes.

1, Full set of David Grist DVD's
2, Beating book, The magic of balloons
3, Patrick van de Ven DVD
4, Mark Byrne DVD 2
5, Robbie Furman, Build a life size car DVD 7 (This DVD is not for sale anywhere and was only given to those attending his car workshops)

at least 50% of profits will go to the Grist family, I will be advertising this on facebook and we might need to send some of the prizes worldwide.
Tickets are £1 each or 10 tickets for £5.

Any money left over will go to the balloon artistes guild to improve the days, we have just purchased a new head mic to help at the days.

Are tickets available Tues/Weds?
Title: Re: David Grist Raffle
Post by: Graham Lee on June 29, 2014, 05:04:13 PM
Yes Andy tickets are available at the event, these are people that are out the country or not attending the days and I wanted it all to be above board so to speak.
So decided to post there numbered tickets so that people were assured it was a genuine event and raffle and not another so called scam.

The DVD's are on the way to the US, Connie Iden-Monds won the Patrick van de Ven DVD and Judy Volkman the David Grist DVD set.
Lorinda from Continental sales in the US is shipping out the DVD set to Judy for me, I sent a set over a while ago to see if we could have someone in the US who could sell
the DVD's on behalf of the Grist family rather than me shipping all the time. I also looked into having the DVD's as a download but that was quite expensive to do as well.

Anyway back on track the winners should be receiving their prizes shortly and thanks again to everyone who helped raise funds for the Grist family.

It was nice of Mark to donate the prize and he also bought a lot of tickets as well to raise funds for the Grist family. Thanks Mark!
