UPDATED RAFFLE PRIZE LIST 2/16/16 - CAN YOU BELIEVE IT?!?!?
NEW ADDITIONS FROM ENO and Hammeck!
WE'VE GOT SOME EXCELLENT RAFFLE PRIZES AND MORE COMING IN. PLEASE MAKE SURE TO BRING CASH FOR TICKETS SO WE CAN MAKE A GREAT DONATION TO THE WOUNDED WARRIORS PROJECT!
I thought it would be a good idea to keep a running list of the generous vendors who are donating to the raffle and post a little bit about them.
Each of the vendors below not only make and sell quality products, but are also doing their part to help support the hammocking community and The Wounded Warrior Project.
I'm personally sending out a BIG THANK YOU to the folks below that have offered to make donations to our charity raffle. Please bring cash for tickets as the items we're collecting are really great!
There are some items below which have been specifically committed and I will update the list with more specific items as as they start coming in, but rest assured we're getting a wonderful selection from these generous people.
Since they are supporting us, please be sure to remember them the next time you're selecting a vendor!

Good to hear Paravelian. I added you to the list.
If you don't feel like you have all the gear you need by the time we get to the date, I'm sure between everybody coming you can borrow whatever you need to get by.
At the first one, 1thatHikes showed up with a shower curtain and towing straps and ended up with a full rig for the time he was there.
If it works out, you guys might want to carpool. We have 18 parking spaces but I'm starting to wonder if that is going to be enough!
WhoopieSlings.com has donated a full suspension set for our raffle at the SoCal Hangers 4th Annual April Fools Group Hang April 7-10!
(2) 6' whoopie slings in two colors, (2) 6' black tree huggers
(2) black toggles
I bought a few of their products over the years and can personally attest to the quality and service they provide.
