Alright, that's a fair enough question...
The main function of the raffles is to raise funds for CougarFest 2004. While i know that CougarFest 2004 may not appeal to you, i figured that some of you may still be interested in taking a chance on winning the gift certificate, regardless of who the raffle benefits.
The breakdown should pretty much be as follows...
$1250 from tickets sold
-approximately $75 for PayPal fees
-$500 for the gift cert
--------------
approx. $675 toward CougarFest 2004
Let me add that i started this thread with only the best of intentions. i've always thought of the relationship between the CEG and NECO to be a symbiotic one, and that i would extend the chance to win this raffle to our "platform-mates"-- the CEG. Sure, the raffle is to raise money for CougarFest, but the winner gets something for his own ride.

P.S. If it's any consolation your Spring Zing from 2002 is something that has been pointed out as what CF2004 should be modeled after. You guys go all out... we had pizza in a parking lot last year.
