Someone recently brought to my attention that there were multiples of several lots. Therefore, we have a few other folks who were winners, here they are...

#1) Lot 4C, Ceja seed...3 lots available, 2nd winner was G. Mullen!
There were only 2 entries so a lot was left over unclaimed.
#2)Lot 3D, Sandvik seed...2 lots available, 2nd winner was T. Marchand!
#3) Lot 1E, The GREEN collection (squash)...3 lots available, J. Johnson and T. Swarts were the other winners!
#4) Lot 2E, The GREENER Collection (squash)...2 lots available, M. Conrad was the 2nd winner!
Sorry for the mistakes, it was unintentional.

Kyle, can you post the winners of the General auction? I'm trying to determine what seeds I'm going to plant and this information is needed.
Also, when do you expect the seeds to be mailed?

I can't post that info, it's far too long and I'm in the middle of finals for Spring graduate school. Sorry, I just don't have that luxury right now.
I plan to have all seeds out by the end of the month.
Send me a private e-mail Heater and I'll see what I can tell you.

This is not going to be popular but I feel that people that sent you money have a right to know what they won.We are all busy, but that should have been taken in consideration when you decided to have the raffle.The club was not to busy to post it on the website,it was not to busy to extend it an extra week when the money was not there,and it is a safe bet the club was not to busy to cash the over 3000 dollars in checks it took in.And not getting the seeds out to the last minute for planting time is extremely wrong.I am glad the raffle was a success for the club but your responsibility did not end once the checks were cashed.

Well said, I could not agree more. ALL the seeds should have already been mailed out.

ALL the seeds are going out by the end of next week, that's not a problem.
What is a problem is sitting here typing in all the General Raffle winners names and seeds, which number over 90. I understand what ya'll are saying but ever had finals?
I still haven't gotten a private e-mail from you Heater as I asked you to do, so it must not be that important to you after all.
The seeds start going out tomorrow....

Correction....11 of the packs have already been mailed. Sorry for being so slow but unlike alot of other organizations, I don't have folks that are helping me with these tasks.
I completely understand your point of view Gourd, but don't be so judgemental unless you've ever been in a similar situation.

Southern,I did not mean this to be a personal attack.The raffle was nicely done,I won some nice seeds and I would enter it again.I did not know that you were handling things alone,I figured that other members of the club would step up and help with things.Anyways,good luck with finals and hope you grow a big one.

Heater...I repeat again, e-mail me (with your real name) and I'll tell you what you got.
