At our first meeting this year, I gave out 5 Super Raffle Tickets to be sold that were not returned. Ticket numbers 26-30. Unfortunately, I can't find the sheet where I wrote down who I gave them to. We need those tickets back by Monday, 11/25/2024 or we will re-print them and the originals will be voided. Please call Jeff Klipfel at 585-754-3432 if you have them. Thanks. ... See MoreSee Less
