style='font-size:14.0pt;color:navy'>As some of you may know, I am a Region VIII
Director for the International Institute of Municipal Clerks. Our region
(which Idaho is a part of) is hosting the upcoming 2010 international
conference due to a change in venue and has very little time to fund raise for
the event (cities normally know a minimum of 4 years in advance in this case it
was only 2 years). Anyway, I would appreciate it greatly if some of you
would be willing to support fund raising efforts through</span></font><font

style='font-size:14.0pt;color:navy'>By purchasing a Football Mania ticket for
$20 you will receive a digital entertainment package to download online music
and books (however to be honest, the selection is not great and I hadn’t
heard of most of the artists)…but the exciting part is the Football Mania
Sweepstakes. If you are a fan of professional football, this is a fun way
to follow the games and win some money as well. The ticket gives you the
opportunity to win $500 weekly with a $1,000 grand prize at the end. Each
ticket has as 1 in 48 chance to win. Additionally, all ticket holders
will be automatically be entered in a custom quilt raffle by the host committee
who will commission a custom professional football quilt for you to have as a
tribute to your favorite team.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

style='font-size:14.0pt;color:navy'>Attached is a copy of the flyer and sample
ticket (including information on how the game works…obviously all of the
tickets are different). Disregard the portion of the flyer regarding
where to send payment, I have the tickets in my possession so you can buy them
directly from me. In order to receive the most benefit from the ticket, I
need to receive a check from you by 1:00 p.m. on September 8<sup>th</sup>
(since I have to send the ticket stub and payment via Fed Ex to <st1:place
w:st="on"><st1:State w:st="on">Nevada</st1:State></st1:place> that
afternoon). After that time, I will email the information to the host
committee at the end of each day, you can still purchase a ticket up until
October 27…but obviously you have more chances to win if you buy
sooner. You can track your ticket online each week to see if you are a
winner. In order to process your request, I need to have your name,
address and email address (in addition to the payment of course). Please
feel free to stop by my office or send me payment with the appropriate
information and I will send the ticket to you…I can send it via email
first if you wish so you know which teams you have immediately. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
