Railcon Raffle

This year we have two sets of two train themed pillows for raffle. So there will be 2 winners! These are 15” home-made, one of a kind pillows! Made and donated by Persimmon Ridge Crafts (https://www.facebook.com/groups/persimmonridge/)

Chances will be sold on the TGA website for $2 for 1 or $10 for 6. Drawing to be held at the beginning of the AMM on October 22, 2023. You do not need to be present to win. If you aren’t there we can bring it to the next convention you’ll be at or ship it to you (at your expense, probably in the $10-15 range).
