The Rotary Club of South Lake Tahoe hosts its 12th annual car raffle. The fundraiser offers the chance to win one of three automobiles or $25,000 cash as the grand prize. Second prize is $1,000 cash. The automobiles include a Toyota Four-Runner, a Tacoma or a Prius, provided by CardinaleWay of South Lake Tahoe.
Purchase tickets from any Rotary Club of South Lake Tahoe member. A completed, numbered ticket stub will be entered in your name. The receipt portion, complete with valuable coupons for you to redeem whether you win a car or not, will be returned to you with your ticket numbers. A maximum of 1,500 tickets will be sold, with 25 tickets drawn April 28. Finalists will be invited to a Rotary-sponsored dinner on May 5 where one key will open the vehicle. The other 24 finalists will be put into a drawing for a second prize of $1,000 cash.
You do not need to attend the dinner to win, as a proxy can attend for you or one will be appointed. Information, www.sltrotary.org
With purchase of raffle tickets, receive offers such as dining discounts from Evans American Gourmet Cafe, Blue Water Bistro, Tahoe Keys Deli, and Pasaretti's, or golf specials from Edgewood Tahoe and Lake Tahoe Golf Course.
Last year's raffle raised about $45,000 which funded South Lake Tahoe Rotary scholarship programs and Rotary community projects such as Coats for Kids, Christmas Cheer, Kid's College, Sober Grad Night, student speech and music contests, CASA and the Drug Store Project.
