Super Raffle Winner

Postby Pete » June 10th, 2012, 9:24 pm

Well, it's finally over. No more waiting to see who won the "Super Raffle" package. Gary and I drew the winning number tonight. And yes, Gary videoed it for posterity.

The winner is a gentleman named Bill from Tonawanda New York.

Gary and I talked to him tonight and he was, as he put it "Beside himself". He has been looking at Greg, Gary and my web sites since he bought the tickets.

A bit about Bill: Here is what he told Greg " He is a former army/ Vietnam vet, is a Project Healing Waters volunteer, and used to work in the VA PTSD division as a counselor.

He told Gary and I that he learned to fly fish about three years ago through Project Healing Waters. HOW COOL IS THAT????? He lives in up state New York and fishes small streams.

Thank you to everybody who participated in the raffle. And a special thanks to Greg and Gary for donating their time and beautiful functional art to this raffle.

Oh, by the way SoCal "Project Healing Waters" and "Casting For Recovery" will each be getting a check for $1780.

Again thank you to everybody,
Pete, Gary & Greg
