Is there a reason why MONEY isn't offered?
You could split the winnings to operating expenses in any percentage you wanted...
if you need $400 for the event, then anything over that would be paid out.
If it's not illegal, that would be my preference, as that way, you could spend it on whatever you needed, wether it was on a particular "list" or not...
Just food for thought...

Far as I can tell searching the internet, giving cash is not against the law for a raffel, as long as you report the winnings "regardless of wether it's a trailer or cash" to our dear IRS. LOL...

Dragonrider, any word yet on the money as a prize?
Also noticed It wasn't in the international rally either? When I approached the organizers for that, they said they considered it and rejected it.
I'm not trying to stirr something up, besides your ability to generate more funds for this rally.
I quit buying gifts for the family long ago and they each get money so that they can buy what they want. Not what I think they want, as I'm not a good guesser...
I don't usually participate in raffels as I don't want or need a trailer, laptop etc...
On the other hand, money is the Universal Language
