This is only friendly FYI to hopefully save someone the possible grief.

That is all.

Exactly!! You ju said you where the PRESIDENT of a not for profit!! In the matter you can't miss a step. This is an individual not tied to any charity, not for profit, fundraising group what so ever.

Beside if this is a game of change just like betting you buddy a case of beer on the hockey game, you would say you need a permit as well. Where were you when another reefer here did the same thing last year? Ken @ Blue World was ok with selling the tickets at the store for it and you would think if it was illegal to do so Ken would have never done it.

Really,.. please, not even close.

Ken was donating the money to a charitable org. and knowing Ken I'm pretty sure he took the proper steps, he was even willing to issue a taxable receipt.

This proposed event/raffle is for personal gain, completely different.

Either way, I really don't care what he does with his raffle, as I stated before, this was only FYI as a friendly word of caution, period.
