Laffle prize list lengthens again

Four more prizes have been added to the prize list for this fall’s Universitywide “Laffle.”

A beautiful hand-knit wool hat.  A generous gift certificate to De Pere Greenhouse and Floral. A Trader Joe’s Italian Extravaganza food basket.  A coffee cup and mystery gift. The prizes are intended to generate interest as the Registrar’s Office collects donations for the “Pair and a Spare” charity drive which asks, as people do their own shopping for clothes and personal items this fall, to remember that disadvantaged children are doing without.

For each donated item a ticket will be awarded to the donor. The stubs will be placed in the Laffle Box for a prize drawing at the drive’s conclusion, Nov. 1, 2010. If individuals or groups would like to donate a prize they can either call ext. 2126 or drop it off at the Registrar’s Office (and receive a ticket for doing so).

The Laffle #2/ Home Depot Cart will be on the move again this Friday. We may even have an additional friend along with us. Bring your items in, call 2126 for a pick-up, and meet the newest member of the Registrar’s Office staff. (It is a life-sized Labrador cut-out on wheels who will be announcing the Laffle #3 for the Humane Society in spring.)
