The tickets are $5.00 each (5 for $20, if sold to an individual or family or as a packet). 

There are two phases to this Charity ticket campaign. We would like your help by either buying or selling the enclosed tickets.  The first phase of the ticket campaign ends Thursday, April 15, 2021 (return date on envelop is April 8 which allows us to meet the April 15 deadline) and the final turn-in will end on Friday, May 8, 2021.  Drawing will be Saturday, May 22, 2021.  Our council quota is 4 tickets per member.  The profit increases with each additional ticket sold and is heavily weighted towards the first turn-in so please try to return them prior to the first turn-in date, if possible.
