Rotary announces 2019 Grand Raffle

Rotary announces 2019 Grand Raffle

he Rotary Club of Road Town is happy to announce the re-emergence of its annual Grand Raffle after a two-year hiatus. A community-minded organisation, the club uses this forum to raise funds for community-based projects, local schools and disaster relief projects.

This is according to a press release from Rortory Tortola, which states that there will be three drawings with the first taking place on October 25th for $ 1500, the second on December 7th for $4000 and the grand drawing on December 24th for $10,000.

Early bird ticket purchasers will be entitled the chance to win at all three draws. Each book contains 11 tickets and persons buying whole books receive one free ticket as the book costs only $100.00. Tickets purchased before the early bird draws on October 25th entitles that holder to win a cash prize, non-cash or combination at each of the three drawings. We will return the winning ticket(s) at each of these early draws to the barrel.

At each draw, we will raffle a selection of the non-cash prizes as well. These prizes will include hotel stays, a weekend for two, destination and local travel, lunch and dinners for two. Rotary members are people of action. We identify the issues that affect our communities and then work together to find the best course of action.

No project is too big or too small for us. We embrace new challenges every day and remain committed to finding solutions to some of the world’s most pressing issues, whether it’s eradicating polio, providing clean water, or promoting peace. Rotary Club of Road Town Together, we make our communities better. We are your neighbours — business professionals and community leaders who represent all generations, and nearly every ethnicity and culture.

The Rotary Club of Road Town meets every Wednesday, 6 pm at the Moorings Mariner Inn, Wickhams Cay II, Road Town, Tortola.
