intro later, excitement now
Okay. My name is Elissa, and I'm the managing director/cofounder of The Story Project (how's that for a new abbreviated version of our slightly long name? I think I prefer it to TASP which, our publicity manager pointed out is difficult to say sans lisp). I'm also putting together & performing in Lunchbox Sketch Comedy, our late night sketch group. But I want to save my formal introduction and bio for a later date because right now I just really want to share exiting news and then shower.

After several sweltering hours in the heat and humidity of downtown NYC, several Story Project members, including myself, assembled a damned good raffle for sunday night. The lower east side community was unbelievably generous, and we have procured several gift certificates to restaurants and shops as well as awesome merchandise from a variety of places. Our raffle is now stacked with prizes ranging from ground level mets & yankees tickets to an In the Heights cast-signed poster & tee shirt, delivered by Lin Manuel Miranda himself, to a gift certificate to an AWESOME downtown vintage shop.l If you all play your cards right, you could walk away with hundreds, perhaps even thousands of dollars worth of prizes (assuming you win each and every prize).

Our party is going to be rocking, so submit your suggestions for drink ideas (see Steve's post) and come out and party with The Story Project!

PS - We'd love to know who's reading this, so respond with comments! I dare you...
