The tickets are $10 each or $25 for three. You do NOT have to be at the convention to win or collect your winnings, but it sure makes it a lot more fun. If you are not at the convention & get your name drawn, the club mails your bag to you. As far as what is in the raffle bags, here is a link to Doug Smith's thread http://www.thechipboard.com/index.cgi/page/1/md/read/id/1295560/sbj/ex-group-scans-of-raffle-donations-to-date/ . Take a look at his posts in that thread to see what has been donated. I can't remember how many names he pulls total, but I seem to remember that it was somewhere in the 12-15 names range -- a few names all three days of the convention.

Lots of fun, a good way to support the club & possibly win a bunch of cool stuff.
