Happy New Year, y'all! George Veni and the powers that be for the ICS have been gracious enough to donate a single registration to the TSA. This registration does NOT include any food, lodging, trips, books, etc. All of that is extra. Since the TSA is one of the ICS sponsors, we have a single registration. We are announcing a raffle to benefit the TSA and some lucky soul will be awarded this fabulous prize! For a measly $5 per raffle ticket, you may be the proud winner of a prize worth between $250 as of today, $275 after January 31st, and $300 after June 1st. You may enter as many times as you like, $5 per entry, and you do NOT have to be a TSA member to enter, although, we sure would like for you to join! "Curses!" you may say! "I have already registered!" Don't despair! Go ahead and enter as many times as you like and, if you win, you can donate the registration to a family member, friend, fellow caver, or a new, energetic, deserving (and broke) young caver you know who is a member of your Grotto and may benefit from such a wonderful prize! We are beginning the raffle this weekend, at the TSA Winter Business Meeting at CBSP, so bring all of the change and money Grandma and/or Santa gave you and invest in a worthy cause: the TSA and, possibly, a trip to THE caving event in Texas, the US, and the world this year! Butch Fralia is currently working feverishly to add an option on the TSA website for you to enter the raffle and pay on line, via Pay Pal, and to enter as many times as you like. We'll let you know when this is up and running. The current plan is for the raffle to run until the TSA Spring Convention, April 25th in Kerrville, where we will announce the winner on Saturday night, after the auction. You will not have to be present to win, but, hey, it's the TSA Convention, so come, anyway! If the deadline changes, you will read it here first. So, please encourage your fellow cavers to buy a ticket and put the word out at your Grotto meetings! Enter soon and enter often! Good luck! Thanks!
