A FUN NEW WAY TO WIN $$$$$$...A PROGRESSIVE RAFFLE

Simply purchase a ticket ($5.00 each) at Perth Legion and on Friday night at 5:00 P.M., a ticket will be drawn and someone will win 20% of the weekly sales. You will then choose an envelope from a board that holds all 52 cards out of a deck. If the ACE OF SPADES is chosen, you will win an additional 30% of the weekly sales. If the ACE OF SPADES is NOT chosen, the 30% of the weekly sales will go into a progressive pot. It will continue to build each week until the ACE OF SPADES is chosen.

YOU DO NOT HAVE TO BE A LEGION MEMBER TO PLAY. Just drop in to the Legion, anytime it is open, to buy your ticket at the bar.

YOU DO NOT HAVE TO BE THERE FOR THE DRAW. When you purchase your ticket, you will put your name, phone number and envelope number (1 - 52), that you would like to open. We will open the envelope the night of the draw to see if the ACE OF SPADES is inside the envelope. If not, new tickets may be purchased for the next week's draw. You will still win your 20% of the weekly sales.

The raffle is being used as a FUNDRAISER for the Legion.  A portion of the Legion's share is given in the community as prescribed by Lottery license. The following are recipients of those funds:
 

  • GWM Hospital Foundation

  • Perth & District Library

  • Easter Seals Society

Tonight's winner on Friday, August 23, was Fern Thompson, of Perth, winning $151 (20%) and she chose Envelope #23 with the EIGHT of SPADES inside. (151 tickets sold X $5.00=$755)

The progressive amount of $226.50 (30%) rolls over into next week's draw, added to last week's amount of $2001, totalling $2227.50. Our Legion receives $377.50 (50%), added to last week's amount of $3335, totalling $3712.50.

You do NOT have to be a Legion member to play, and you do NOT have to be there the night of the draw!

Please support our Legion and buy your ticket for next week's draw for $5.00. The more tickets sold...the BIGGER the pot. A FUN 'FUN'draiser for Branch 244!

Try to catch that elusive ACE OF SPADES! For you, we hope so...for the Legion, not so much.
