A few notes from the editor:

ABOVE ALL ELSE. BE NICE. EVERY SINGLE PERSON SELLING TICKETS IS A VOLUNTEER. Even if they are an employee of the establishment, they are still volunteering to sell the tickets at that establishment. Be kind, be courteous, and be patient.

Once you place your ticket in, that’s it. The boxes will not be opened for any reason or any one.

Put a first and last name and a phone number. If you do not, the ticket will not count. No exceptions

Did we mention BE KIND?

Be kind to EVERYONE. Whether they deserve it or not.

Be responsible not only for you, but also for those with you.

Be respectful. This is a great event for a good cause. Be Polite.

Represent Jasper County well to those who come to this event on Sunday. Please, let’s show them what makes our county so special.
