| Cheers to Summer Raffle!
Our first ever “Cheers to Summer” Raffle!
Click here for Photos!
The Schizophrenia Society of Alberta, Red Deer Chapter, held
it’s first annual “Cheers to Summer” raffle at Westerner Days
in Red Deer on July 18th to the 22nd, 2007. The tickets cost 2
dollars each, or were 3 for 5 dollars. The prize package consisted
of:
- stainless steel CENTRO BBQ from Canadian Tire, complete with
full propane tank, marinades, polish and cover…valued together
at approximately $1050.00
- 1 patio set from Home Depot, complete with candle lanters,
valued at approximately $500.00
- 1 gazebo from Wal-mart, valued at approximately $160.00
- 1 meat package from Nossack’s Fine Meats, valued at $200.00
- 1 set of BBQ tools and patio lights from RONA, valued at approximately
$50.00
- 1 wine opener from CHTV, valued at approximately $50.00
- 1 gift certificate from Liquor Crossing, valued at $25.00
TOTAL VALUE= APPROXIMATELY $2035
When all was said and done, we made $8,487.81. We had $1,525.79
in expenses, bringing the net profit to $6,962.02. Janet and Brad
Service from Red Deer won the prize package, a very nice little
family, and they were so surprised and happy! They also BBQ a
lot, even through winter, so at least the prize went to someone
who will use it!
Although we didn’t sell all our tickets, I consider this event
a success. We pulled everything together in only a month, from
beginning to finish. The business community proved very supportive,
and all our items were sponsored other than the BBQ cover, which
saved us over 1-thousand dollars in expenses. We also managed
to educate a few people about schizophrenia, and some people were
interested in taking our educational materials home to read about.
And the volunteers we had proved themselves to be reliable and
up to the task. The key now, is to build on this volunteer base
for future fundraising events.
