I am getting ready to send out the requests to our vendors for donations to the SubRegatta raffle table again this year.
As in the past - I'm sure the good folks will come up with some great stuff for the committee to raffle off to help cover the cost of the Regatta.
If you were ever wondering why there is no charge to go to the regatta - that's why. The vendors pay the costs! Matt, Dave, Al, Skip, Dave M all give the big stuff - and without complaint. Hulls, WTCs, electronics, kits, etc. Many of the other vendors give as well.
I bought an extra Revell Type VII kit by accident.
I forgot I ordered a second one and it just appeared one day after I had already gotten one from a different hobby shop. Instead of sending it back for the refund, I will be shipping it to Tony Gallonio to put out on the table for some lucky attendee to win.
How about some other non-vendor SubCommittee members chipping in a prize too? As of late I have seen a number of kits popping up on the "for sale" side of this message board. How about some of you kicking in one of them as a donation?
How about some of those "Like New" submarine books that you looked at once and put on the shelf? Instead of selling them on Amazon - send them in to do the club some good.
Please send what you can to raffle co-chair Tony Gallonio. His address is
Mr. Anthony Gallonio

You will of course be mentioned in the December 2004 write up of the SubRegatta in the SCR and you will get a nice warm fuzzy too, knowing you helped our one of a kind club!
NOT A BAD RETURN FOR A $1 RAFFLE TICKET!!!
