Listen up Tiki Ohana! Our beloved Marina the Mermaid would love to party with all of us at this year's Tiki Oasis, but needs our assistance to make this happen. So a couple of her pals have come up with a totally tantalizing way to help our favorite fishtailed friend get to Tiki Oasis! We are selling "Bring A Mermaid To Oasis" raffle tickets for $10.00 each. The winner of this raffle will get THE MOST FABULOUS PRIZE EVER: AN ORIGINAL RUM PAINTING OF "MARINA THE MERMAID", PAINTED BY NONE OTHER THAN (native drum roll please)... THOR!!!! Yes, Thor is painting an exquisite, one-of-a kind painting of Marina the Mermaid WITH HIS UNIQUE RUM PAINT. If you are unaware of Thor's amazing rum paintings, check out this fascinating (and funny) You Tube video of how he creates these works of art: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jgxw3SqXZxE Thor is still working on this masterpiece, so we don't have a photo to show yet of what it will look like, but we CAN tell you THIS: It will be a whopping 16x 20 INCHES, UNFRAMED, painted entirely out of rum, and the image will be of Marina frolicking through the portholes of the Wreck Bar. And we all know the fate of the Wreck Bar (Marina's underwater home) is uncertain right now, so this piece will have particular emotional and historical significance for Tiki art collectors. And let this light your fuse: If you wanted to buy one of Thor's rum paintings from his art gallery (of this size, and unframed, like this one), it would sell for $750-$800 dollars! So how staggering would it be if you WON IT for a fraction of that?! Plus, you're helping out one of your Tiki ohana, so it's all good mana! "Okay, how do I help a mermaid? How can I win this amazing painting?" Well, buy some raffle tickets!!! One ticket costs only $10.00. Obviously, the more you buy, the better your chances are of winning this painting! You can enter by sending a personal check or money order to Tangaroa-Ru. Just send her a personal message on Tiki Central, and she'll send you the mailing address. Please indicate on your payment that this is for the "Send A Mermaid To Oasis" raffle, and include your REAL name AND Tiki Central name, address and phone number with your payment. You will receive a confirmation email, with a corresponding raffle number when your payment is received. Remember, the more tickets you buy, the greater your chances are to WIN THIS AMAZING PAINTING! The lucky winning number will be randomly drawn at Tiki Oasis and an announcement will be made there. However the winner need NOT be present to win! So anyone can enter this contest -- even if you live far, far away! We will contact the winner and mail the painting to them if they can't be at Tiki Oasis! And Thor and Marina will both sign the painting for you! This is a win-win situation, Tikiphiles. You get to help bring one of our favorite Tiki family members to Tiki Oasis AND you get a chance to win a gorgeous one-of-a-kind piece of Thor art! Enter now! Enter often! Mahalo for your support!
