JT Raffle/Things That Don't Matter As Much

First, Happy St. Patrick's Day Everyone! 

Oops. I meant to write this yesterday, but I after running the New Bedford Half Marathon in a PR 1:33:19, I was a little tired and slipped into a brief coma when I returned to Somerville. Probably a little faster than I should have run considering I'm still dealing with a bit of foot trouble, but it felt good to actually race after so much training and building up these last 5 or 6 months. Just 4 weeks from today until the Marathon though, and I'm starting to get pretty excited. 

For one thing, I'm getting closer to my fundraising goal. As of right now, I have just over $2,000 to go, and as the marathon and the fundraising deadline approach, I'm feeling better and better about both. So thank you again to everyone who's donated, cheered me on while running, or both! 

But what I'm even more excited about, at least right now, is JT. I'm sure you've heard, but his new album will be released tomorrow on iTunes. He also just announced a second part of the album will be released in the fall. On top of that, I still have tickets to the JT/Jay-Z concert August 11th at Fenway.

And you could too! Starting today, starting right now, I'm going to be selling raffle tickets for an extra pair of seats to the August 11th show. You read that right (or heard that right, in case you had a family member read this aloud to you while you stepped away to pet your dog): I have tickets to the JT show. And they could be yours, for a small donation. 

Here's how it works: 

-Raffle tickets will be sold for $10/each

-Tickets can be 'purchased' by making a donation to the Stork Fund on my fundraising page (note: you will not receive actual tickets)

-When donating, make sure to add your full name and how many tickets you would like to purchase with your donation (in multiples of $10). If you would like to donate more and not buy extra tickets, feel free! 

-On Friday, April 12th, 2013 at Noon, I will stop selling raffle tickets, and I will use an online service shortly after to generate a raffle winner

-If you cannot donate via credit card and wish to make other arrangements to donate or purchase raffle tickets, please email me 

So there you have it. I've also created a Facebook event here. 

For more about the seats, raffle, or any other information you need, please feel free to email me!
