The dojo is selling raffle tickets to support one of our friends. Pamela Gracey of ColourDeCanvas. Her husband was recently diagnosed with stage 4 Metastatic Prostate cancer. Because of this, his job reduced his hours to part-time, and he lost his health insurance. Pam is always giving back to the community. She's a massive supporter of Safe Futures, the non-profit that the dojo supports.
You don't need to be present to win. The prizes are pretty epic, considering how low the tickets are. The tickets are $5. Sensei has tickets at the dojo!
The top prices are the following:
$500 to Mallove's Jewelry
Cocktail and appetizer party for 20 at Filomena's
Tickets to a major sports event (I believe it's a Boston Game)
A round of golf for Four at Great Neck Golf Club
We often get asked to give. If you find you have $5 to spare please think of this. To me and our dojo it's really important to support each other through easy and hard times.
April 3rd will be there drawing. Shoreline United Networking is hosting the event at Filomenas from 6 pm - 8:30 pm. If you go to the event, it's a $20 charge, but it enters you into a 50/50 raffle. More information is on the flyer. There is no adult class 4/3 because I’d like everyone to attend this event.
