Since the VCC will not be conducting an Auction in January of next year, the Board of Directors has unanimously voted to have a raffle at each of the four (4) meetings to be held in November. We have five excellent previously owned Windows 10 PCs (three desktop units and two laptops). One device will be raffled off at each of the first three November meetings and two units will be raffled off at the last meeting in November. We have: an HP All-in-One, a Dell slimline desktop, an HP Pavilion desktop, an HP EliteBook laptop and one other laptop. All of these units have been upgraded in terms of memory and the addition of a solid-state drives (SSD). Each unit is running the most current version of Windows 10 and will be loaded with a comprehensive bouquet of quality software applications for security, productivity, and maintenance. Since these raffles will take place so close to Christmas, wonderful gift giving opportunities are knocking at your door for the price of a raffle ticket. And remember, it would be quite OK to give yourself a gift!

Ticket prices are: one (1) ticket for $5.00 & three (3) tickets for $10.00. Take advantage of these opportunities to score some great computer hardware that can be used as gifts for a relative. a friend or for yourself. Good Luck!
