I have not had time to take pictures of what I have already received, but I can tell you that we already have several NICE, raffle items.

We also have a few big ticket items in the works for this year. You really won't want to miss this charity raffle! (y)

I don't see why we wouldn't accept any items. If you'd like to PM me with what you had in mind, feel free. Or just post here, that is your choice!
 
It's that time of year for liquidations. I'm going to a a sale Friday that according to the word on the street has a bunch of  "lots" containing automotive stuff. If we pick one or more up, I'm sure there will be something in there that can be donated.
Also, Ian, I'm going to text u my e-mail address, can you please send me the flyer for distribution, thanks.

Tom,

Flyer sent!



There were many big boxes on my porch when I got home today. One major contributor came though and delivered some goodies today.

I promise, I will try to start getting pictures uploaded this weekend, since I have Saturday and Sunday off.
 
Scored a big ol' box of detailing and finishing stuff at auction on Friday.
I'm going to be donating a DUB (meguiar's) wash/wax/detail "kit" I put together.(There were 13 assorted bottles of this stuff and I doubt I'll ever use all of it, so some other AV owner can benefit from it) I haven't used any of this stuff yet, but it's made by Meguiar's, so I'm guessing it's pretty decent, I did some quick internet research while at the auction and it appears Mequiar's branded some products under the DUB brand to appeal to a more youthful demographic and the "tuner" scene. Apparently Meguiar's products have a reputation as being for old guys with classic cars, not kids/young adults with sport performance vehicles.
I don't care what the bottle looks like as long as it works. I'm sure somebody would like to have it.
The "kit" will contain the following:
48oz Car Wash
16oz Liquid Wax (this must be quality stuff, it has a GMT 900 vehicle on the label)
24oz Detailer spray
16oz interior Clean & Shine
5oz  Metal Polish

I am curious how you are having success getting donations from companies?  I have been trying on my end and have had no luck as of yet....  :(

Essentially: I just ask. I send an email and either include a copy of the donation letter, or tell them I will include it should I be given an email.

I have some contacts I have gained from last year, as well as a couple new ones. There isn't a huge success rate, but of the 30 companies or so I have emailed and asked, about half have responded with donations.

Not saying its a must, but some events like this send a printed 8.5x11 thank you for supporting CAFCNA (and chosen charity)

I don't think FRITO is going to the GTG, but if he can get it to Cincinnati I will bring it down.

I missed that boat yesterday, wasn't ready for him to be here lol. I'll see what I can do and keep it easy to ship.  (y)
 
Unfortunately I can't make it to Nats but I would like to donate some items. Prefer not to ship. And willing to travel a little if someone wants to get them. Located in Virginia. Item are cladded avy running boards (no bolts but all brackets). Cladded brush guard. And midgate sub box that goes where your window would win out.

That is mighty generous of you, brokenoak...thank you!
 
Brokenoak,

Where are you in VA. It would be AWESOME if you donated those items, but I am not sure who would bring them. I will be coming through VA, but I don't think I will have room to spare with the rest of the stuff I am bringing.  :(
 
Where in VA are you at? I know I will have room under my AV on my trailer
 
Yes. How far you going down 95. I can meet you at walmart in colonial heights witch is right off 95.
