That is an impressive list! Of course there are some things that don't boat my boat but.....when can we buy tickets?
I like the chain saw idea! It is very Handy when clearing shooting lanes and snags. Put it in the truck and you can clear a blocked road easily without ear muffs, noise or smell. I have a 10" Craftsman 19.2 that I use all the time. My partner laughed at it, until he saw it work. Now when we do blind or stand maintenance that's all he wants to use.
I was not soliciting, I am looking for feed back on selection of guns and calibers, I can inbox you if you are interested, 300 tickets maximum, $100 per ticket, 1/10 is a winner.
I got similar feedback on the saw, one charge will cut up a good sized tree.

What’s the raffle for?
The Lions Club I am a member of maintains a public park on a lake, one of the things we do, covers park expenses, mostly just pays the property taxes.
There should be no taxes on a public park. I'd work on getting that changed, or tell the politicians to hold their own raffle, and your Lions can go find a new feelgood thing to spend money on...
The club owns the property and it is open to the public, we maintain it and do improvements as we see fit, club could sell it and distribute the funds as we see fit, state and county works well with us, we received awards for dealing with buckthorn and correcting the outlet of the lake to flow as it should and not on farm fields , grant money and us doing raffles and other fundraisers covered that. The raffle frees up funding for core Lions programs for vision, hearing, and diabetes

I buy a ticket every year no matter what’s on there…….maybe this is my year but I doubt I’ll win anything
If your luck is anything like mine... read through the list and find the one thing you like the least... That'll be what you win.

You can empty your change jar and buy a Hi-Point, I would put a Daisy Red Rider on the raffle before one of those
Bet folks would LOVE seeing one and LOL if one was on the list.
Kind of like a "white elephant" "gun"
#31 One "surprise" gift
ETA: I'm referring to the Red Ryder, NOT the HP
