The duffel bag this year was managed by Rick Marlowe out of his room. Drawing began at 1PM Thursday during the convention. There was a limit of 2 in order for everybody who was interested would have a chance. A line formed outside Rick’s room as the 1PM deadline approached. By early Friday afternoon, all of the pieces were drawn and money present to the Gliding Stars charity. Inside the bag was 100 items plus 2 special versions. A poster indicating the odds for each version was displayed and signed as people made their donation.
The auction item featured all of the main 6 dispensers each wearing skates and gliding on top of a star of “ice”. It raised $300 for the charity.
Thanks to all who participated and especially Rick. Together the duffel bag raised over $1500 !
