Reply to "MTH's new See It, Hold It, Run It promotion"

Doug,

Now I like that name!!

Knowing I was getting ready to retire at the end of Feb. 2012, the Cumberland County, NJ 4-H agent asked if I would be interested in leading their 4-H Model Train Club, whose previous leader had to drop out due to work schedule conflicts. My wife, who has been involved in 4-H for over 25 years kinda nudged me into it. Problem was the group was modeling in HO and I'm into O. Well, after seeing the deplorable condition the HO inventory was in, I decided to get the kids involved in O-gauge. My motto is "why have half of something when you can have the whole enchilada."

Neat having two 4-H train club leaders in the same state with the same first name.

I saw the MTH SHR promotion when I noticed MTH's 2012 catalog on-line. I was hoping to get a set for the 2012 fair. I e-mailed MTH but never got a response. Went to my local dealer (Trains N' Things in Vineland) but they weren't familiar with the program. I would sure be curious as to what you learn.

I have learned, though, that setting up a raffle requires a tremendous amout of paperwork since it is considered gambling in the State of NJ, and therefore subject to the gaming laws in the state.
