Hey all, some more updates for you.
Again this year NWIMAC purchased notepads. These will go to the first 250 paid entries and Nwimac members to enter the swap.

One of our hobbyists, Mike Bakker aka bigEvil1, has donated a frag of Jason Fox My Miami Chalice to the raffle. It currently has 8 eyes with another month to grow. Picture is an example of My Miami and not actual frag.
Valued at $300

We've also receive an amazing donation for the raffle from Kessil.

We've also received a donation from Omegasea LLC.

We are also placing an order for club shirts. If you'd like to preorder your shirt and have it waiting for you at the swap place let me know.

We have received flyers. If you have a store and would be able to setup flyers in your store for customers to see, please let me know. I can get them mailed to you.
