See them all at http://www.aerolite.org/events/greensburg-fundraiser.htm

The web page has been updated with new prize pictures, information on how to
buy tickets and when and where the drawing will be held.

It sure would be a shame if I had to put those un-purchased tickets in the
recycle bin. Plus, I think we can all agree that $10,000 is an even better
number. (Hint Hint)
We are almost but not quite there yet...

Thanks again to all cash and prize donors for their generosity. This wouldn't
be possible without you.
