MEC Raffle

Convocation’s teacup raffle is a yearly staple. Each donation or ticket purchased strengthens both the Magical Education Council and the greater community! Items donated by Pagan-friendly businesses and individuals stay on exhibit thru the event, until just before the silent raffle call Saturday evening. Just one dollar is all it takes for a chance at the raffle items you love best! 

How It Works: Raffle ticket sales and display is housed in our new Marketplace, where Art Room and the author book sales and signing events are held, and right next door to Merchants!  

Write your badge number on the lined side of each purchased ticket. Drop a ticket into the ‘teacup’ for the raffle items you desire. Keep the other half of the ticket, and keep your badge number handy! 

Raffle winners are drawn at 6 PM Saturday evening. Winning badge numbers will be posted at multiple locations. Once winners are posted, collect your winnings at the Marketplace! Bring your badge and ticket to the Marketplace, Saturday evening or Sunday 11-3! Winnings must please be collected at the event or they will be forfeit. Have fun and good luck!  

Prospective Donors: Clean, new or gently used items of interest to the Convocation participants may be accepted ahead of the event by opening an email chat with raffle@convocation.org. Musical instruments, ritual ware, books, decks and candles, jewelry, artwork, gift cards or gift baskets are gratefully accepted. Space will be available next to the donated item for your company’s pamphlets, QR codes or business cards.

MEC is a 501(c)(3) and tax receipts are available upon request. MEC reserves the right to use donated items in the way that best serves the organization and the community. Items donated may be combined with other donations or saved for future events. Please contact raffle@convocation.org to make arrangements ahead of the event, so that we may properly log items, and have sufficient time to prepare the space and attend to other activities such as ticket sales. We do have a maximum number of items that can be placed each year, so that raffle call does not extend past its allotted timeslot. We appreciate advance notice and arrangements for pickup ahead of the event. Donations received after 2 PM Friday during the event may be reserved for future events, combined with existing items, or else regretfully refused. To avoid forfeited winnings, badge number must be written on the lined side of the raffle ticket. Badge number and winning ticket must be presented at Marketplace to collect winning items. For those who cannot collect winnings directly, write badge number of the ‘kept’ side of the tickets. Pass these tickets to a surrogate to collect winnings at the Marketplace.
