2008 Wine Raffle, Auction & Dinner - Annual Fundraiser
(Established in 2003)

The goal back in
2003 was to make this the only fundraiser for the year and so far this decision has proved
fruitful and continues to be more successful each year.
Funds are raised by:
(1) Selling raffle tickets for $5.00 each or 10 for $45.00 with a First
Prize of 50 bottles of premium wines; Second Prize 24 bottles of
Premium Wine; and Third Prize 12 bottles of Premium Wine! Check out the
wine listing by clicking the
"2008 Wine Listing for Winners" button above!
(2) Selling Dinner Tickets. The 2008 Dinner will held in
Sunriver at the Holy Trinity Church, 18143 Cottonwood Road beginning at
6:00 p.m. We will have a wonderful catered dinner along with
a Silent
and Oral auction (by a Professional Auctioneer). All auction
items are obtained or donated by our members and local businesses
primarily from Central Oregon, but many also come from outside our
immediate area.
In 2006 the members were divided up into teams. The
winning team that sold the most tickets was served a wonderful SPECIAL
breakfast, at the weekly meeting, by the losing team. (see photos below)
Since inception,
the funds raised have gone to support our local youth related
organizations.
In 2007 we cleared $40,000!
Once again in 2008 we will have 6 Teams with
6 members on each team.
