+GEO*Trailblazer 1 Posted February 16, 2004 Share Posted February 16, 2004 I posted in the Geocaching Forums and thought I would do the same here. Grandma 88,donated a handmade 91"X91" quilt to share with Geocachers. It also has a Signal the Frog pillow cover or patch.It will be done to the way the winner likes it. My thought to make it fair to everyone is to have a raffle type giveaway. And all the Proceeds going to Habitat for Humnities House that we are almost ready to build. What are your thought? It will be given away at a CITO event that is in the works. Quote Link to comment

Nascat Posted February 18, 2004 Share Posted February 18, 2004 (edited) GEO*Trailblazer 1, Just a note to let you know that I've sent Habitat for Humanity in Cassville a check this morning. I also included one of my Nascat Geocaching Calling Cards. I hope the Raffle goes well. Take Care, Mike PS: I belong to Local 68 of the Operating Engineers and I received a letter from them yesterday that they're going to be starting a Habitat Project, it will be in Newark NJ, the City I was born in (54 year ago) and one that desperately needs new housing. Never know, I may just get involved. Edited February 18, 2004 by Nascat Quote Link to comment
