Title: American Legion Summer Raffle - $1000 Prize!!!
Post by: pianoman9701 on June 29, 2025, 05:02:37 PM: The Summer raffle has begun and will be drawn on August 27th. Max 500 tickets to be sold for $10 each (we usually sell between 350-400).

Our post is the Smith-Reynolds American Legion Post #14, here in Vancouver, WA. These raffles go to pay for post expenses - payroll taxes, license fees, maintenance, etc. We couldn't serve our vets and keep the doors open without selling these tickets. Please send me a PM with your name and phone number, and number of tickets desired. I will take a picture of the stubs and text it back to you. I take checks, PayPal, and Venmo. I can give the PayPal and Venmo handles upon request.

Post by: pianoman9701 on August 05, 2025, 03:26:26 PM: Got to bring this up again because the drawing is in three weeks. The last I saw last week is that only 230 tickets had been checked out and some of those not yet collected. Odds are good for a winning ticket. I'll be getting more when I tend bar tomorrow night. If you want some, they're $10 each and the prize is $1,000. Only a max of 500 will be sold. In out last four raffles, I have yet to see all 500 be sold. I'll take Venmo and PayPal, or you can send me a check.

These raffles pay for licenses, payroll taxes, and permits and they help keep our doors open to continue serving out veterans. If you've got, I'd love to give you a chance at winning the BIG BUCKS!

Only half the tickets have been sold to date. $1,000 would go a long way to some fine hunting gear for the Fall! Please help out vets by taking a ticket or 10. $10 each. I take checks, Venmo, or PayPal (maybe CashApp, too?). PM me with your name and telephone number and I'll get you set up. Thanks all!

Sorry no one here got the call last night. Winning number was 253 and the winner has donated $500 back to the post. He's a Navy vet, double amputee and still getting used to his new legs. The draw couldn't have happened to a nicer and more deserving guy. He's a weekly participant with his wife and they contribute a lot to the post.

Thanks to everyone from HuntWA. You guys really stepped up and we appreciate that so much. I ended up selling almost a 1/3 of tickets sold because of your generosity. Thank you all!
