 Member
Drawings - These drawings are for All Members who attend the meeting.
Showing your current TBCS membership card entitles you to several drawings at
each meeting. Those famous
Blue Tickets!
C-Drive Drawing -
Tickets for this drawing are given to anyone who donates to the community food
pantries, either with staple food items or with monetary donations. The
drawing is open to anyone in attendance.
The "C" in C-Drive stands for
cans. (That's not a secret !!)
Proceeds for the C-Drive
Drawing were $21 and 19 staple food items. Thank you, all of you
who contributed.
NAME TAG DRAWING -- To encourage
attendees to get to know one another, we are encouraging everybody to wear some
kind of name tag, originality encouraged! Anyone, member or non-member, who
wore a readable name tag or whatever, received a ticket for this new drawing.
Prizes for the above drawing included: some VSLive! T-shirts, some
small home and office useful stuff, and two free subscriptions to Smart
Computing magazine. Fine fun ...
Special Drawing - This
drawing is a fund-raiser and a fun-raiser. Usually, several quality items are
offered for this drawing, allowing the winner to choose from these. The drawing
is open to anyone who attends the meeting, member or not.
Special Drawing: This month, the prize chosen was: Microsoft Plus! Digital
Media Edition
50/50 Drawing - "50/50"
means that the proceeds from ticket "donations" are divided between the winner
and TBCS.
This month's winner
received $30 and $30 went to TBCS.
Ink Cartridges and Cell Phones - Thank
you to those who keep bringing in your empty ink cartridges and your
no-longer-needed cell phones. A good number of these items come in
continually. If possible, bring working chargers with the phones. (We have a
"home" for the cell phones, providing 911 assistance for battered spouses.)
Hey, hurry back!
See you at the September meeting, on the third Tuesday evening. And that's on the
20th. Same place, same time.
