The Rover-Landers of BC

Founders Day will be held Saturday January 24, 2015 and in the past we have had some great support from Members and Vendors for Raffle Prizes.

This is the major fund raiser for the Club so I am putting out a Challenge to Members and Vendors to donate prizes for the event.

Most of us have treasures or inventory that we do not have a use for anymore that we can donate to the Club for the Raffle. Land Rover parts, Land Rover Accessories, Camping Equipment or any of value relating to the pursuit of our passion. If you have any question whether you think you donation is appropriate just check with Andy, that's what I did :)

To start things off I have a brand new very rare Land Rover Café Rocking Chair that I am donating for the raffle. Wouldn't you look good in this chair around a campfire or in your living room, elegant, useful and Land Rover!!!

Very nice! That would look great in my kitchen beside my espresso machine!! Thank you for donating Stuart. I have also donated a new VHF handheld radio for this years founders day. Looking forward to seeing everyone.

Matt

That's Great Matt, yes that chair would be great for you and winning in a raffle let's you bring it home with no potential complains of Land Rover Expenditures :lol:

Who's next!!!!

Great, good for you Stuart. In keeping with your example Teresa and I have donated a Land-Rover branded winter coat from our company.

I have a number of past issues of Overland Journal that I will be bringing to hand out. Now that I am not with the Journal full-time I don't have as many as I used to.

I will look to see what else I have as well.

Fyi, Jan 24 is the date for founders day :D

I also have a newer hand held VHF I'll be donating for the raffle. Can't be outdone by my pal Matt!
Who else has swag or interesting items they're willing to donate? Post up.
Happy New Year to everyone.

Ah, I have an unique and exciting item, courtesy of one of my neighbours who promptly donated it when I mentioned our raffle.

A dancing Hawaiian bobble girl for the dash board of your car.
:blob4:

Bobble Hawaii Girl, great, that's a must for any properly equipped Land Rover!!!!


I hope we can generate more interest in helping with the Club Raffle, if you are a Land Rover owner you must have things you bought as a Must Have that have never been used, go out and look in those garages!!!

FYI, I found a site that is selling the Costa Rican Leather Campaign chairs without the Custom Land Rover logo for $3,200 USD's so I expect very generous raffle ticket buying at Founder's Day!!!

Happy New Year to all...

I have a set of new 3mm black chequer plate wing protectors and gaskets, plus rear corner protectors for a 90 which I will donate.

How about a gift certificate for a 1 hour bovercraft tour for up to three people? Island-based but I do bring it over to the lower mainland occasionally...

Rob

Gents, It's awesome to see all these generous offers, Thank you, every thing helps.

The rental for the Agriplex arena has gone up (after recent renovations) so holding the show there is now stretching the clubs funds.

Cheers,
Andy

PS Hey Rob, I have to ask... what is a Bover-craft? Do you have a picture?

Hey Andy Id be willing to donate something from the shop for ya ...let me know maybe a gift certificate or something ...

"Bovercraft".... yikes, I really need to learn how to spell!!! :oops: Let's try that again... a 1 hour tour for up to 3 passengers on a Hovercraft (with an "H" :wink: )... here's a link to some pics http://www.vancouverislandhovercraft.com

Hi Rob, that's cool. Nice ride! The winner could possibly combine it with the Van Isle Rally in the Valley weekend in June?
I was trying to figure out if a "Bovercraft" was a mix between a boat and a hovercraft! :?

Hi Bill, thanks for the offer, anything that is for general off-roading or camping related seems to pull the most interest,

Cheers,
Andy

Hi Andy

Yes, combining a hovercraft ride with the Rover weekend at Greg's is a definite possibility! I will have a gift certificate ready for the show (the certificate is good for one year). :wave:

Cheers, Rob
