Hey Ryan! I'm taking the donations this year as Rob909 and Chiaki both have too much work cry. I've emailed, faxed, and called numerous potential vendors. Not a lot of responses, not a lot of donations, but there were a few nice items sent to me. I think it's the economy that is keeping companies at bay. I put my address and the shops address in the donation letter. I don't know if the shop has received anything or not.  
   You can send the stuff to me, or save the shipping & bring it up to the vous with you, but I would like a list of your donation items.  
   IF ANYONE HAS A NEW ITEM THAT THEY WOULD LIKE TO GIVE UP FOR THE RAFFLE IT WOULD BE VERY MUCH APPRECIATED BY THE CLUB.  
   I'm adding about a dozen items along the lines of camping, fly fishing, hiking, collectibles, etc. Hopfully with more to come.  
   See you at the Vous! Thanks, Tim  Cool/`~~~---<*)))))><

If you have to ask whether it's worth it to come up to God's country and fish... then, I guess - a priority adjustment is in order !!!!

Hello  
I'm not a member of the SSFFC club yet but I own a tile importing business in Santa Barbara and would like to donate (4)pebble door mats from indonesia for the raffle etc.  I know they have nothing to do with fishing but they are really cool looking and retail between $40 and 60 dollars each. You can check them out at my website www.zenparadise.net look under pebble doomats.  Let me know if you like them and I will send them up right away.

I just picked up a donation from Sanford Story, a club member who owns A & E Automotive in Goleta, CA.  
 
He donated:
 
Redington SV-1 Reel
 
Cabelas Prestige Plus II reel with fly line and an extra spool.  
 
They all look brand new!
