I just wanted to take my time to wish each and everyone on Battlestar Raven, HAPPY 4th Year Chapter Anniversary to each and everyone of you. It has bee a long and hard journey for her considering her rough beginning. But the success she is enjoying now, is because of each and everyone of her members ( both current or old timers should I say ;-) - and new ). Your combine hard work got her to where she is now and she and leads with example. The ownership, pride, friendship, comraderie, talent, fun and a sense of family that the Raven crew has, is something that makes her unique and strong. This is what will make her rise above anything. We keep this group simple, fun, and NOT a competition. If there is anything I have learned from my experience being a part of a fan club that things so seriously, it takes the fun out of things and people end up going against each other. Things will begin to crumble after that. And that is something I am very thankful for that the Raven is FREE from. And I will would like to keep it that way. This group has work far too hard to get to where she is now. So to all Ravens, keep showing your pride and loyalty which you have already done so. And the Raven will keep rising and soaring above.
To help celebrate the Raven's 4th Year Chapter Anniversary, we will announce the winner of the free round trip airfare and VIP ticket to Galacticon 4. This was put together by me and my husband along with the collaboration of the other Raven Command Staff members. We had to really think hard for months. My husband and I decided to put this together because we both know and have been watching, that not everyone has the same financial capabilities to go to conventions. And we got thinking to ourselves and combine forces, in making that one select person's dream come true. The person selected is someone that has been a part of the Raven crew since her beginning. This individual has shown nothing but loyalty and integrity as part of the crew. He once told me that he may not be as talented as the other members we have including myself but he will certainly do what he can and in what he is good at. And he has just done that. No failure. This individual is a very good motivator. He has evolve from someone not knowing at first what he needs to do or what he can do, to someone that keeps wanting to learn, taking initiative of doing things. And this individual has stuck with the Raven in bad times and in good times. And this EVERYONE, is a characteristic that makes a group strong if you have people like this as part of the crew.
So without further ado, the winner of the Raven Battle Group free roundtrip airfare and VIP ticket to Galacticon 4 is Keith "Leonidas" Ranson. One of the Galacticon 4 VIP tickets that I have in my possession, will be immediately transferred to you and the roundtrip airfare ticket will be given to you on the side at the appropriate time due to some personal information that we might need to book you the ticket. Now if for some reason you are not able to go due to your work, then a second person will be chosen in your place. But I am sure you would want to go ;-)
Congratulation Leonidas! You deserve it! MORE TO COME EVERYONE AS ANOTHER THING WILL BE REVEALED! :-)
SO SAY WE ALL!!!! " NIL SATIS NISI OPTIMUM!" Get used to seeing that phrase from the Raven Battle Group! You will soon find out everyone why here shortly. ;-) :-)
