THIS IS THE BIG ONE- A couple rods, several reels and great tackle to be had.
Prize order and amount subject to change, I'm still taking a few things...maybe?
It's time to kick off the Annual Ultimate Bass Adopt A Family Fundraiser Raffle. This is not the mini's we've been running all year, this one has the great prizes in it!!!
A quick synopsis for those that weren’t part of Ultimate Bass last year. Ultimate Bass holds a raffle to raise money for a family in need each year at Christmas. Our tenth annual means so far, we've helped 11 (last year we helped two) families over the past 10 Holiday Seasons. These families typically had extreme medical bills preventing a joy filled holiday season. However, a couple of our recipients simply were families who had fallen on very hard times.
Last year, with your (everyone here at Ultimate Bass) support, we raised enough money to help two families. Both families had babies in very severe danger of not surviving and your funds help them in ways we can't imagine.
Baby ColeBaby RemingtonTwo years ago our fundraising helped a family who's mother/wife had ocular cancer which spread severely. She was receiving treatments three states away. The drive back and forth was financially impossible on top of all the medical bills. There is much more to their story, here's a link to the video of when we presented the funds Presenting Adopt A Family to the Ivie's

Tickets are your basic Raffle Ticket. Ticket cost:
IF YOU BUY TICKETS VIA PAY PAL or VENMON PLEASE PUT YOUR SCREEN NAME IN THE NOTES SECTION
1 ticket for $5
5 tickets for $20
30 tickets for $100
I will be tracking ticket purchases like always. Many times we are not able to spend $100 at a time to get the bonus tickets. If you buy $100 worth of tickets over a series of purchases I will give you the extra tickets to equal thirty with the purchase that takes you over $100. So if you buy 5 sets of $20 that gets you 25 tickets and I will kick in the extra five tickets to make the 30.
We take all forms of money but prefer Pay Pal or Venmo. Make sure to send funds via "Friends and Family". You can mail a check (please let me know it's coming), did I say we prefer Pay Pal, and if you want to use a CC we can send you a Pay Pal invoice that you can pay without having a Pay Pal account. See the bottom of the post for further information.
I also take Venmo as of this year my email for both Venmo and PayPal is mike at ultimatebass.com
I will message you the numbers of your tickets. You'll need to hang onto these numbers. On December 16th we will draw the winners and post the ticket numbers. We will do the drawing on Facebook Live to ensure the integrity of the raffle. (You do not have to have Facebook in order to win, winning numbers will be published on the Ultimate Bass forums) I will also write your screen name on the back of your tickets so we'll know who won what on drawing night.
The funds recipient - we are still taking applications at this time please submit a small write up about the family and their needs to myself, FD, or Capt. Bassinlou
