If you have an oven mitt or two (or 300) that you are willing to part with, you MIGHT just win yourself a ticket to Burning Man 08. Here’s the deal: Martini Steve, Killbuck and I are looking for oven mitts to adorn our “Shrine to the Oven Mitt” art project:
www.burningman.com/installa...rine_mitt
We need lots of mitts to decorate the shrine appropriately. Furthermore, we just also happen to have a spare ticket to the event. Instead of just selling the ticket and purchasing the mitts we need, we thought it would be more in tune with the spirit of the event to encourage participation. So we are going to give the ticket to a randomly chosen person from the pool of people who send us mitts.
How do you participate? Send your mitts and a note with your real name, playa name (if you have one), mailing address, phone number and email address to:
Steven Goodman
The Way of the Mitt
100 N Whisman Road, #1924
Mountain View, CA 94043
Email "steve at StevenGoodman.com" if you need a phone number for your shipment.
Donations received on or before the June 14th 2008 (Flag Day - the theme is the American Dream, afterall) will be registered for the raffle. We will announce the winner (Playa name only) on this ePlaya thread on June 16th. Donations received after that time will not be eligible to win the ticket but will still be used for the project.
How will we choose a winner? You get one chance (or ticket) to win for each different mitt you send us. Send us 18 different mitts – you get 18 chances to win. Send us 4 of the same mitt – get 1 ticket. Homemade, store purchased, new or used mitts are all good with us.
We will put all of the tickets into a bowl and choose a winner and a runner-up. The winner will have one week to acknowledge and arrange to receive the ticket. If for whatever reason we cannot arrange the ticket shipment / pickup with the winner, we will award the ticket to the runner up.
How do you get the ticket? If the winning ticket holder is in the USA, we will ship it UPS / USPS signature required. If the winning ticket holder resides outside of the USA, we will have the ticket waiting for you at Will Call.
Odds of winning: We have no idea – depends on how many people participate. Taxes: The winner pays all of the taxes, duties, etc. on this ticket. We are not liable for either a lost or misplaced ticket. Everything else: We will just have to resolve any other problems and concerns in good faith as they arise.
