The raffle was a smashing success!

The raffle turned up $2400 of the $3300 I raised! What a great success it was, and a lot of fun, too. We had so much fun that people added impromptu prizes at the giveaway itself.

It's time to walk again already!

The walk is a mere 3 weeks away now, and it's time to get busy. We're doing a raffle at work, and I need to get stuff lined up for prizes. So far 2 pair of tickets to upcoming Illini football games in October have been donated, and I'm sure I'll get some local restaurants to kick in a few gift certificates as well.

My personal page is set up at http://main.diabetes.org/goto/tori, please pop over and have a look!

I'm also going to contact Radu aka Entropy the owner/developer of the online game I play, Eternal Lands, an MMORPG with incredible graphics, and an even more incredible user base, and see if he'll allow me to do a contest/raffle for in-game prizes donated by fellow players and myself. I have several wonderful friends that are willing to donate some rather nice prizes for the contest, so here's hoping I will get his blessings and maybe even a prize donation :D
