This message is an official one.
Unfortunately tickets sales are falling way short of the required 1500 to make the planned draw happen on June the 30th.
Current sales are under 900 tickets sold leaving a huge short fall.
So here is the official part.
The organisers of the raffle (Team Jesse) have decided to extend the Cancer Treatment Fundraising Raffle for TEAM JESSE by 22 days and do the draw anyway.
The reason for the 22 day extension is that the organisers of the CRC SPEEDSHOW in Auckland have invited TEAM JESSE to have a display in the foyer at the show, sell tickets over the 2 days, and then have one of the many stars of the show do a live draw at the end of the second day.
Regardless of the amount of tickets sold at that point, I guarantee the draw will be happening.
After speaking to the gambling commission in Wellington they said. “ Because the tickets had a completion date and we intend to extend by 22 days we need to offer refunds to ticket holders who no longer wish to participate.”
If anyone who already has purchased tickets and wishes to receive a refund please call me on 021 033 1411
09 478 5046
Or email Shane@nztees.com
If you are reading this and haven’t already brought a ticket there are still plenty of tickets left, and the odds are awesome. If you brought a book today you would have a 1 in 14 chance of taking the Superstock home or one of the other prizes.
The trailer is under construction by a professional Trailer Builder, Mike Hansen,
Mike contacted me a few days ago regarding Raffle tickets, and has since offered to build the tandem trailer 3rd prize at No Charge, He also gained full sponsorship for all the trailer parts needed at No Charge from Trailcom including alloy wheels. The tyres are being sponsored by Mag & Turbo, the ply runners by Plyable, and Mainstream freight are going to transport the trailer up to Auckland for the CRC Speedshow display also No Charge.
Mike Hansen will have a Raffle Book in the next couple of days.
A Special thanks to Mike Hansen
So if you Need a raffle ticket or trailer built.. 027 260 6802
We will never be able to thank everyone enough for your help & support.
Jesse Is doing very well, he had his quarterly MRI last week and the tumour is still progressively growing but fortunately at the same slow rate, he has good days & bad days but don’t we all.
Thanks again to everyone.
