Can't make it to Niagara? Well here's a way to participate in the convention & help support it & the Atlantic Growers. Howard & Danny Dill have donated 1 complete set of seeds from their Premium seed list to the Niagara
Giant Pumpkin Convention. These seeds have been divided up into 10 lots & will be raffled off over the next 3 weeks. Each lot has a value of between $42 & $56, but is worth more than that on the open market.

Details will be posted soon. Tickets are $5 each or 5 for $20. Draw will take place in Niagara Falls during the Convention & the seeds will be sent out from Howard & Danny to save any border problems. You can purchase tickets by sending your check or money order to:

Lisa Irwin
559 Goderich St.
Port Elgin, Ontario
Canada N0H 2C4

You could also Phone her Toll free at 1-800-387-3456. They might even take credit cards, but you'd have to phone & find out for sure though. Help support the convention and you might win some great seeds that are already sold out. Some available are the 1233 & 1008 Reiss, 1247 Tingley, 1327 Dueck & more. Check out the Dill's website & go to their Premium Seed list. Everything that is listed is included in the raffle. If you have any questions, email Dave McCallum at: pumpkin@log.on.ca He is in charge of the raffle. Your support is gratefully appreciated.

Who do we make the checks out to? This sounds like fun for all of us who can't make the convention. Thanks for organizing this.
