A little story about this years event from the event director
Another year at VFW 3525. For the first time, we raise over $20,000! We also have 100 or more sponsors for the first time. Many of the new additions to our sponsorship are for raffles or auction items. Our financial donors stay about the same. The 2010 event is also the first where we officially have a youth event. All of the youth in attendance get a small trophy for coming out, and they get to pick their prize from the raffle bin before we actually pull the raffles. Most choose sports tickets to the various minor league teams in the area (Trenton Titans/Devils and Thunder, Somerset Patriots, Camden Riversharks.) 2010 is also our 5th year, and we recognize seven sponsors for being on board each of our first five events. They were: Camden Riversharks, Firkin Tavern, J and V Trophies, Marty�s Place, NJ Devils, Ritchie and Page Distributors and the Trenton Thunder. We'll continue to recognize the 5 year sponsors each year going forward with a plaque recognizing their support. We sell TV raffles again, this time almost selling out 1200 tickets. Another huge win for the event and MAWNJ. We also continue the ad-book ourselves. The templates work from last year work for us, and we find a local printer that will charge us cost for the printing. A huge savings over the retail cost for printing and layout.
