Official Manx Club Meyers Manx Kick-Out-S.S. Raffle rules (“Official Rules”)

The dune buggy raffle is sponsored by, and will solely benefit, the Manx Club (hereafter referred to as “MC’) located at PO Box 9558, Glendale, CA91226. By participating in this raffle, and purchasing a raffle ticket, all participants and specifically the person named on a raffle ticket stub accept and agree as follows:

1.         HOW TO ENTER. The ticket value is set at $20.00 per entry. Entrant must fully complete the personal information as requested on the ticket stub. Purchaser must be a current member in good standing of the Manx Club to be eligible to purchase a ticket AND win the raffle. Prospective Entrants may, however, join the club or renew their membership at the same time they purchase ticket(s). MC assumes no responsibility for illegible and/or incomplete ticket stub information. Entrant must complete the “Manx Club 2014 Raffle Ticket Official Order Form” found at both www.seatoseasafari.com, and www.manxclub.com  and mail the form with payment to: Manx Club 2014 Raffle, PO Box 9558, Glendale, CA 91226. Entrants may purchase as many tickets as they wish. Tickets are personal and can only be in the name of an individual Entrant. Entrants may not sell, donate or otherwise transfer their ticket(s) to anyone. (Exception: MC Directors and Volunteers may sell tickets on behalf of the club at face value with all monies and raffle ticket stubs delivered to the MC.) The prize will be issued only to the Entrant whose name is written on the ticket stub. All sales of raffle tickets are final and there shall be no refunds. MC assumes no responsibility for lost, late, misdirected, or non-delivered mail or other failure to deliver tickets prior to any deadline.

2.         GRAND PRIZE. The prize is a turn-key, “Orange Peel Yellow” Subaru-powered, 5-speed Meyers Manx Kick-Out-S.S., built on a reconditioned Volkswagen Beetle chassis and valued at $35,000.00. The Meyers Manx Kick-Out body is serial number #K-OM029-12SS. All transfer fees, license fees, registration fees, any and all relevant federal, state and local taxes are the sole responsibility of the selected Entrant in connection with the Grand Prize. The IRS has taken the position that amounts paid for chances in raffles, lotteries or similar drawings for valuable prizes are not gifts, and consequently do not qualify as deductible charitable contributions. The Grand Prize winner is responsible for the payment of all taxes resulting from the income attributable to the receipt of this prize, and should consult his/her professional legal and accounting advisors regarding the tax effects of his/her respective choices.

3.         DRAWING & ODDS. One (1) drawing for the Grand Prize will be made at random and conducted by a representative of the Manx Club on Sunday, July 13th, 2014, at Camp Tanda, 40005 Lakeview Drive, Big Bear Lake, CA 92315 at the conclusion of the 2014 Big Bear Bash, in Big Bear, California. The prize offered may not be substituted for cash. Entrants need not be present to win. The grand prize winner will be selected from among the ticket stubs that have been detached from all tickets sold for entry in the drawing. The prize is awarded based on the name written on the ticket, not by the pre-printed number on the ticket. The pre-printed number is an audit mechanism that ensures all tickets are present and accounted for at the time of the raffle. Odds of winning depend on the total number of tickets sold. A maximum of 6,000 tickets will be sold. A minimum of 1,950 tickets is required to be sold for the Raffle to be valid. In the event less than 1,950 tickets are sold by Sunday, July 13th, 2014, MC retains the right to extend the drawing date to subsequent regularly-scheduled Manx Club Fun Runs until the minimum threshold of ticket sales is met. The odds of winning range from 1:1,950 to 1:6,000.

4.         NOTIFICATION/FINAL AWARD OF GRAND PRIZE. The winning ticket shall be selected at random. At the same time, four alternate winning tickets will be selected at random in case the Prize cannot be delivered to the original winner for any reason. The Entrant whose ticket is drawn (“Selected Entrant”) at the Grand Prize drawing will be notified by phone and/or U.S. Mail using the information provided on the ticket stub via the official entry form. a) Selected Entrant must take possession of the prize within ninety (90) calendar days of notification. If Selected Entrant fails to take possession, or cannot be located within ninety (90) calendar days after reasonable attempts to do so, or will be deemed to be ineligible, Selected Entrant will be deemed to have forfeited the prize, and a subsequent Selected Entrant will be selected for such prize. b) The subsequent Selected Entrant must take possession of the prize within ninety (90) calendar days of notification. If subsequent Selected Entrant fails to take possession or cannot be located within ninety (90) calendar days after reasonable attempts to do so, or is deemed to be ineligible, subsequent Selected Entrant will be deemed to have forfeited the prize, and a subsequent Selected Entrant will be selected for such prize. c) Additional subsequent Selected Entrants will be drawn and vetted in the manner detailed above until the Grand Prize is properly claimed. The final Selected Entrant is responsible to take delivery in person at Valley Center, California. The winner shall have no rights in the Prize until the Prize is fully and unconditionally accepted by the winner as evidenced by the timely return of the Prize Acceptance Form and until complete delivery of the Prize is made to the winner. The Prize remains the sole property of the MC until unconditionally accepted by the winner.

5.         ELIGIBILITY. The Raffle is open to all persons age 18 who are a current member in good standing of the Manx Club. This includes MC’s board members and volunteers. The Prize will not be awarded, and will be deemed forfeited, if the winner’s ticket was issued in exchange for a check returned for “insufficient funds” or “account closed” or otherwise nonnegotiable. The Prize will not be awarded, and will be deemed forfeited, if the winner’s ticket was issued in exchange for a credit card charge deemed “declined”, “invalid”, “stolen” or “in dispute” or otherwise not accepted by the credit card company. (If the Grand Prize has been deemed forfeited, the prize will be awarded in accordance with Section 4 above: NOTIFICATION/FINAL AWARD OF GRAND PRIZE.)  Any offer to participate is void where prohibited by law. Winners will need to provide a Social Security number or Taxpayer ID number consistent with the name(s) on the ticket(s). Out of country residents will need to provide a copy of the identification page of their passports issued by their country of origin. The Prize shall not be transferred until all legal requirements have been met. The winner of the Prize agrees that the “fair market value” of the Meyers Manx Kick-Out-S.S. is $35,000.00 for income tax and all other purposes. MC provides no guarantee or warranty (a) as to the value of any item, (b) that the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) or the California Franchise Tax Board will accept the MC stated value as the value of the prize for the purposes of determining any income tax payable, or (c) that prizes can be subsequently sold for its stated value.

6.             VOID WHERE PROHIBITED BY LAW. If the purchaser resides outside the State of California, it is the responsibility of the purchaser to determine whether the purchaser’s participation in the raffle is legal in the nation or state of the purchaser’s residence and whether the purchaser may accept the Prize as the winner thereof. If participation or acceptance by the winner is prevented by any national, federal, state, or local law, the Prize will be deemed forfeited, no refund shall be paid to the winner and the Prize shall be awarded to the next alternate winner.
