The Tax Man!

Before we jump into the full Tax Man story, we would like to thank you all for stopping by. Within the first 2 days of this blog being "live" we received over 60 hits! Our friends all over the country, Canada, and Ecuador have already made this so worthwhile. Your support keeps us moving during the ebbs that we hit every-now-and-then!

Speaking of which, we hit a little bump in the road today. With all of the interest and donations we've received to support our "Raffle Fundraiser," we felt it would be necessary to make sure we could legally do such a thing (Go figure, right?). With a wonderful explanation from Sharon at Blackwell Tax and Accounting Services, we learned that holding a "raffle" constitutes gaming for which we would need a permit. A permit is only granted to non-profit businesses, which we are not! So, Chelsey and I are in the process of re-thinking the entire fundraising idea.

Our new accountant, Sharon, suggested we do an auction, so that is the path we are working towards. As soon as we iron out the details, we'll get it out to you. In the mean time, we would love some feed-back. Feel free to answer the questions below to help us figure everything out! 

Thanks!
