OK boys and girls - if you thought the US F3J team Raffle was good before, it is now even better!!! SkipMillerModels and SAMBA have generously donated a Carbon 68 Lite model to the raffle... We now have 3 of the top models in the world in our raffle!!! Hurry and get your tickets now to have a chance at these terrific prizes. Just click over to the team website at http://www.usf3jteam.com.

Following is their announcement to the soaring world! Thanks Skip and SAMBA!!!

SkipMillerModels , in partnership with Samba models CZ , is proud to announce the donation of a SkipMillerModels/Samba Pike PERFECT to the USA F3J Team raffle! The PERFECT, which has achieved amazing acclaim, competition success and acceptance on the National and World soaring competition scene, will be the Carbon 68 F3J lite - unarguably the most popular version we supply. This donation was made to demonstrate the commitment of SkipMillerModels and Samba to the financial support and success of the USA F3J team. In Samba's own words "it makes sense to assist in the USA fund raising effort, as the Pike PERFECT has had amazing acceptance, recognition, and success in the American market. It is only right that we help support the US". From my perspective as a long term competitor, I am honored to offer such a prestigious model to support and enhance our United States F3J Team effort.

Hi Guys....this just in from Jim Monaco, U.S. Senior Team Manager

I'm pleased to announce that the League of Silent Flight (LSF) has again
stepped up bigtime to support our US F3J soaring team!!! I just received a
nice check that will help us greatly in our fund raising efforts. This is a
big deal for a self sustaining non-profit group to contribute to our well
being and it is GREATLY appreciated.

I'd also like to recognize a group of individual donors that handed me money
at the SWC to support the team. It started off with Gordy challenging
others to donate and several folks stepped up stuffing bills in my hand. I
didn't get everyone's name, but thanks to Gordy, Rick Bothell, and Jack
Womack and all the others that gave me small unmarked bills... :)

Thanks also to all the folks that bought shirts and raffle tickets at the
event...

We still have a long way to go, but I am cautiously optimistic that we will
reach our goals.

Remember we have the best Raffle I have ever seen for a team fundraising
event with 3 (count 'em 3) terrific brand new F3J/TD planes with a Pike
Perfect, Supra and Experience Pro along with a JR Radio system, Sirius
Charger, and magazine subscriptions - and there is more waiting to be
announced. Head over to http://www.usf3jteam.com to buy your tickets. We
also have a great selection of team merchandise available - so pick
something nice and order it...

Thanks for your support
Jim
