$12,000 Rolex raffled by Ridgecrest Pregnancy Care Center
Rolex Submariner For tickets call 442-294-9539
"We rely on the good citizens of Ridgecrest, churches, and business owners," said Judy Bernard, Executive Director of the Ridgecrest Pregnancy Care Center. The organization will be holding a fundraiser raffle over the next month thanks to a donor's generous donation of a fine watch. The watch is a Rolex Submariner, appraised as $12,500 last year. Bernard notes that the price of gold has gone up since. If the winner has no need for the watch, a buyer has been secured to purchase it for $10,000 cash. Tickets sell for $100 each and the raffle will go on until 250 tickets are sold. The date of the drawing for the winner is currently to be announced, the Center is aiming for mid December, at Santa's Artshop. The Pregnancy Care Center is a non-profit organization that receives no state or federal funding, relying on community donors. Recently, High Desert Air Ductor supported the Center by donating the HVAC air conditioner they required, as part of their "Do What is Right" program. A timely donation from elsewhere paid for the labor. The Center provides a substantial number of services in support of pregnancies, including confirmation and free prenatal vitamins. Going beyond the pregnancy they offer free online courses in 2,000 parenting subjects, even going beyond and educating parents on how to buy their first home, among other courses. Performing these short, 8-10 minute, educational courses earns the parents Baby Bucks to be spent on any number of useful supplies from diapers to car seats in their Baby Boutique. These courses can be taken by both parents and grandparents to support the new family. Once their B-suite is prepared they intend to do in-person courses and visual learning. They also plan on offering a 10 week Bible study to treat depression and anxiety suffered by abortion recipients. Thanks to the Daily Independent for this article and information

For those of you new to the Valley! Dear Customers: I would like to introduce ourselves and tell you about The Swap Sheet. We were established in 1946 and have been in business continiously since that time. We have been around this block once or twice so we must be doing something right! We are a weekly shopper and online by 7pm Tuesdays and out in print by 7pm on Wednesdays. In most cases, deadline is 5pm Tuesdays. We have been in business so long because we are a unique paper/shopper. We appeal to all sorts of Valley-wide residents of every economic strata and thus the Valley’s largest advertiser. If we were a newspaper we would almost be the Times. However, we do not offer news, we carry no opinion columns, we do not offer lovelorn advice nor do we print your horoscope. All we offer to the businesses and residents, is customers who are reading The Swap Sheet with one thing in mind, “How am I going to spend the money in my pocket this week?” Isn’t it great to have already passed that hurdle? Some business people think, advertising doesn’t work or I am already busy why advertise. Look in The Swap Sheet, your competitor is advertising, probably week in and week out. They don’t advertise because we are nice people, although we are. They don’t advertise each week because they like spending money, although some may. They advertise week after week because ads in The Swap Sheet gets results. That is the best test of effective advertising - THE RESULTS! Please look over this information and if we can be of any assistance, please ask. I sincerely appreciate your consideration. Peggy Breeden Owner
Thank you for your business, We will honor that trust!
