One difference between them that I appreciate is how the charity raffle is handled. In Chicago, the winning names are called and if the person isn't there, they mail the prize. Very little time is taken.

At FTU, if the number called isn't there, another number is called. This took a much longer amount of time and i felt much of my last day was wasted.

I have no issue with he raffle itself but appreciate that Chicago uses a minimal amount of meeting time.
