This year should be yet another fantastic Fest. You were all very generous last year in donating items to be raffled off. The items to be raffled are usually more unique and a bit more expensive than the give away table. Having the raffle enables us to raise funds for our site. We alternate between Jim and Les. Last year the funds went to support the site Jim handles and we raised about $600.00. This year the funds will go to Les to offset his costs. I hope we can double it because we have more people coming and I know how generous all of you are.
Les does incredible work for us and we all want this to continue. If it were not for his efforts we would not be having any Joni conversations or Fests. Therefore, what we are looking for are old posters, albums, a Joni guitar, pictures...anything Joni...that is unique and well...let me just say it...more expensive than the give-aways. So...those pictures where you colored yourself next to Joni will not do. Sorry. If you would e-mail me off list with your ideas I would greatly appreciate it. And finally all of the donations should be sent to Ashara since this bee-girl does not want to fly from Minnesota to New York with raffle gifts. Especially since I will be laden with my accordion, lemon bread and honey. Queen Ashara and I have talked about how to set up times to buy raffle tickets and there will be plenty of time while at the Fest with no sales during performances. Okay Joni lovers....let me hear form you. You know I will be nudging you from now until the Fest to donate...and then at the Fest to BUY BUY BUY!!! Paz may loan me his glitter shoes and I will bring my feathers...stircly to enhance sales of course.
