Following the success of the 2018 raffle we are holding another raffle this year with some great prizes. All proceeds will be going towards conservation & fisheries enhancement initiatives.
We have successfully applied for a raffle license (#522755) and are in the process of printing tickets.
There will be 1000 tickets printed at $5 each in booklets of 10.
We ask that members purchase booklets of 10 tickets at $50 each and sell them to family members, friends, co-workers and acquaintances.
Tickets will be available at the next regular meeting March 5 2019. We will accept cash or cheque from members for the booklets. If you require additional tickets contact the club.
It is imperative that the ticket stubs are retained and returned along with any unsold tickets before the draw date of May 21.
This is also Member’s Night where we will have a potluck dinner for the final meeting of the 2018/2019 season.
