The Jr. Akorn Kamado Kooker Charcoal grill features dual dampers, heat gauge, and triple wall steel with insulation to deliver a superior grilling experience. Keep flare-ups low with cast-iron cooking grates. And you can grill more with less charcoal. With the easy dump ash pan clean up is easy and the hinged lid keeps the lid in place while you cook. The Jr. Akorn Kamado Kooker offers easy mobility and is great for tailgating, camping and going to the park. This item #E00614 Jr. Akorn Kamado Kooker is identical to item #06614 Jr. Akorn Kamado Kooker.

Color: Red
153 Sq. In. Primary Cooking Area
EVEN HEAT & Enhances Flavor

Compare to Ceramic: More Durable - Affordable - Lighter Weight
 


I've always wanted one of these grills - the Little Green Egg is ridiculously expensive.

So...can one of the co-owners from GH win this drawing? Asking for a friend...:)

This is not breaking the law. The difference is this is a donation that is tax deductible. Not a purchase. There is "No purchase necessary."

I'm guessing the IRS doesn't see Gopher Hole as a charity. It's not truly a donation in tax terms.

You may deduct a charitable contribution made to, or for the use of, any of the following organizations that otherwise are qualified under section 170(c) of the Internal Revenue Code:

A state or United States possession (or political subdivision thereof), or the United States or the District of Columbia, if made exclusively for public purposes;
A community chest, corporation, trust, fund, or foundation, organized or created in the United States or its possessions, or under the laws of the United States, any state, the District of Columbia or any possession of the United States, and organized and operated exclusively for charitable, religious, educational, scientific, or literary purposes, or for the prevention of cruelty to children or animals;
A church, synagogue, or other religious organization;
A war veterans' organization or its post, auxiliary, trust, or foundation organized in the United States or its possessions;
A nonprofit volunteer fire company;
A civil defense organization created under federal, state, or local law (this includes unreimbursed expenses of civil defense volunteers that are directly connected with and solely attributable to their volunteer services);
A domestic fraternal society, operating under the lodge system, but only if the contribution is to be used exclusively for charitable purposes;
A nonprofit cemetery company if the funds are irrevocably dedicated to the perpetual care of the cemetery as a whole and not a particular lot or mausoleum crypt.
 

A reminder as well that you can donate monthly instead of one lump sum if that is easier for you.
 





I have a new Weber already.[emoji3]

Do the ads turn off using the Tapatalk app as well? And do they only turn off for the next year?

Also, is it possible to get a picture of the hat/bracelet?

I may have missed it, but was there a timeframe listed anywhere? I guess I thought the 2017 donation drive lasted through the end of the year, so I hadn't contributed yet. I had also been hoping someone would answer my question about the ads on Tapatalk.

Tapatalk ads are in that application. The ads that get turned off are when you visit GopherHole via the web.

We actually will have additional items to give away between now and the end of the year, so for those that haven't contributed yet, we will still have more through the end of the year.

We haven't figured out a way to turn the ads off on TapTalk yet...so we can't guarantee that, but we are looking into it.
 

Did we not do a donation drive in 2018? Or did I just miss it...

We did not do a formal donor drive in 2018, we missed the window. We plan on doing a formal donor drive a bit later this year.
