You Read Correctly! Right up until the weekend before The Block Party (June 15th), we are going to hold a raffle for 2 Free Tickets for those that want to come out and party with us at the mansion! Maybe you're in the area and weren't sure if you wanted to come or not? Maybe it was just out of reach of your budget? Or maybe you just like donating and want to enter the raffle to give tickets to someone else? Either way, we will be making a post every day so you aware of the chance! Each entry will only cost you a meager 2 SBD.

Yes! Only 2 SBD and you have your chance to attend the first annual Block Party hosted by The Alliance. Several community leaders will be present and some prominent figures we can all rub shoulders with and maybe even get stupid, HA! Simply send the 2 SBD to @thealliance with a memo saying For THE BLOCK PARTY RAFFLE and you're in! Tickets will be assigned their numbers as they come in. Be sure to signify it is for the raffle or it may be overlooked and not counted. The drawing will be held in The Alliance Castle on discord (do not have to be present to win) shortly after 11:59 p.m. CST on Saturday, the 15th of June. Good luck everyone!!!🍀

Obviously, things like this cost money, and as our personal budgets aren't the world's largest, witness @enginewitty (currently ranked #89 on Steemian.info and head of The Alliance), has been reaching out to people and communities to seek their support in making this happen. These are all communities and people we are grateful for that have supported us in our endeavor:

- **@adsactly** - ADSactly has been a supporter of The Alliance almost since its inception. One could say that @adsactly is @thealliance and @thealliance is @adsactly. They love that we have been supportive of them as well and we all agree that the #steem #blockchain is one of the cryptosphere's best kept secrets. They run a witness (currently #54) and have been helping to secure the chain for ages. They already have several things in mind for a presentation and some beautiful things to unveil to the people in attendance! They really are about community and we thank you for your commitment! [Stop in to their discord](https://discord.gg/VvyfjGn) sometime and say hello! - **@ssg-community** - #steemsilvergold 'pirates' and The Alliance family have always meshed well together and there is a strong crossover of members from each community. Upon speaking with @raybrockman and @thedamus, there was a big 'Hell Yea!' involved! Be exciting to see some shiny people there! Thank you for your commitment and contributions! - **@spl** - After speaking with @bethalea, she was all about having some representation for [Lucksacks](https://scorumpoker.com/) and the Steem Poker League. Thank you for your donation and love and fervor for helping move forward with this! Looking forward to my deck of cards with that sweet ass on it! - **@freewritehouse** - This is a treat for anyone that wants to expand their creative hand. @mariannewest has committed to helping sponsor and come up with a few fun activities for people. This is a very unexpected and appreciated gesture as there were multiple communities and people asked that had far deeper pockets and more time on their hands that declined - many thanks! I look forward to a live #freewrite activity! - **@oracle-d** - Though unable to actually attend, @starkerz has agreed to help out in various other ways and be a sponsor of this event, so we thank him heavily and will be spoken of and thought of fondly throughout the process. Did you know they were a witness too? (currently #80) They help so many people, maybe stop in with your extra vote? - **@guiltyparties** - Good ol' Guilty has come forward and will be throwing some things together for us! He is also a witness (currently #64), representing multiple communities including the veterans here on the chain. Very happy to see this long-time blockchain enthusiast offer what he can to assist in our endeavor. Word has it, he is sending along a little surprise for our goodie bags! - **@nainaztengra** - She has been a long time supporter of #thealliance and we are happy to call her smiling self 'family'. Thank you sweetheart! We really appreciate your contribution! - **@thecryptodrive** - He has given a healthy donation to the cause! Thank you sir! He is a stellar witness (currently ranked #10!) Be on the lookout for [DLease](https://dlease.io/market) and the exciting things they will be bringing to the table to help out Steempeeps! - **@josephsavage** - On behalf of @steembasicincome, he is supporting us with 100 SBI bonus units (for @thealliance) and 2 bonus units for everyone that attends, and then 5% bonus units on all enrollments from our attendee list that come in the first 30 days after the event. How sweet is that! - **@brisby** - Such a sweet soul on this lady! She has given some of her hard earned STEEM to help further the cause and we are ever as grateful to you as we are any donations received to make this happen for everyone! Thank you Briz! - **@eonwarped** - What a wonderful surprise to see one of @helpie's go to guys step up to the plate with his own personal wallet and donate some of his earned rewards from the blockchain! We all thank you sir, totally unexpected! - **@dfinney** - The new lovely mod over there for the @ssg-community has unexpectedly donated from her own pocket! You realize, you basically bought yourself a ticket, right? Many warm thank yous, truly. - **@saffisara** - With her golden heart, or is it silver, not sure, but it is a treasure to behold the generosity contained in this woman - thank you! - **@blocktrades** - Many thank yous for endorsing this and helping out with your massive whalepower! Their witness is (currently ranked #4) and they also have been working hard to instill the [Proposal System](https://steempeak.com/blocktrades/@blocktrades/steem-proposal-system-will-be-completed-on-monday) and we thank them! - **@patrice** - An unexpected donation from one of our other witnesses on chain (currently ranked #63), she has our gratitude! And thanks for helping so much behind the scenes! - **@steemflow** - Stepping to the plate with some of his hard earned SBDibbies, 'Yaddy' has sent a donation to help the family cause, many thanks my man! - **@katrina-ariel** - Being the sweetheart she is, #thealliance Princess has gifted us in a beautiful way! - ***@llfarms*** - A very unexpected and loving gesture from her as we appreciate her donation and support, thank you sweets! - ***@elizacheng*** - #teammalaysia and fellow huggable fambalam 'Lady YunaJay', has stepped forward with some of her platform earnings to help us out. Many thanks my dear! - ***@thealliance*** - All members of the family that consistently support everyone in the fam - you are appreciated! https://media1.tenor.com/images/df296dce4faf15ddf048e1dc0e79a032/tenor.gif?itemid=5170581 ## So Thankful

For all the people/organizations/communities that have agreed to help us out and give what they have been able to. It's going to be real fun, I promise! Every little vote and resteem from everyone out there helps more than you know. EVERYTHING matters in some form or fashion and will not be forgotten. So, thank you, and you, and you, and you, and you, and you, you, you ,you, and all of you too!
