Congratulations to all Rotarians who have turned in tickets for the 2015 Rotary Raffle. Just three weeks into our raffle, we are almost a quarter of the way towards this year’s goal of raising $55,000.
Currently, the Denver Broncos, led by Venus Fisher, are leading with 16 tickets sold. The Green Bay Packers, led Jen Howard, are close on their heels with 15 tickets sold.
Twenty-one of our Rotarians have met or exceeded their responsibility of selling at least three tickets. But don’t stop selling! We have plenty more tickets available.
As you know, this is our largest fundraiser of the year and we depend on these dollars to fund important projects in our community. Plus the lucky winners reap some large rewards. The $10,000 first prize is an excellent marketing tool to sell these tickets.
Many thanks for helping our raffle get off to a great start! Your Raffle Committee promises we will meet our goal which will enable us to preserve our mission of “Service Above Self”.
