Dick Kimberley, a member of the Santa Fe County Sheriff's Posse,
tells me the Posse is holding a raffle to help the rider buy a
new horse for MSAR.

The raffle is for one of five donated knives, each with an
estimated value in the range $50 to $500 (most over $100).  The
raffle will be limited to 1,000 tickets and ticket sales end on
August 31, 2006.  Holders of winning tickets do *not* have to
be present to win.  

There will be five winners - the first winner picks the knife
they want from the five;  the next picks from the four that are
left;  and so on.

Tickets are $3.00 each, or four for $10.00.

To buy tickets, mail a check (or similar) plus your name and
phone number to:

        Santa Fe County Sheriff's Posse
        3213 Rodeo Road
        Santa Fe, New Mexico 87507
