More news from the very successful 2018 RC Laser National Titles held over last weekend at Mawson Lakes.
For the first time, the National Titles Organising Committee conducted a raffle as part of the event. Participants were provided with tickets as part of the entry price and additional tickets were sold. The raffle was drawn at the 2018 RC Laser National Titles dinner, held on Saturday night.
Overall, there were 1585 tickets sold of which 350 went to entrants of the National Titles. 210 tickets were sold interstate.
Members of Mawson Lakes Model Yacht Club did an amazing job in selling over 1,000 tickets. And many thanks go to those from interstate who helped sell raffle tickets. You helped substantially with the running of the National Titles.
Ticket sellers included Bob Caldow of Club Kawana Radio Yachting, Sunshine Coast; Geoff Smith of Paradise Radio Yacht Club, Gold Coast; Noel McPherson of Dobroyd Aquatic Club, Sydney; Scott Fleming of Patterson Lakes Radio Model Yacht Club, Melbourne; and Gary Hein of Portland Yacht Club, Victoria.
The raffle was a great success, and Alex Hayter is the very happy owner of a new RC Laser.
