50/50 Raffle

The 50/50 Raffle is underway and this is your chance to win up to $5,000. You may pick a number 1-200, but understand the numbers are going quick so don’t delay. The cost of a ticket is $50, but if this is too much, feel free to go in 1/2 with a friend.

We also need your help getting the word out about the raffle, it would be great to get family, friends and co-workers in on the action. The 50/50 is our big fundraiser for the year, instead of the yard sale or silent auction which we have done in the past, this is one of the only times we are asking for your help in supporting the Peirce PTO.

So again if the $50 is too much feel free to split the cost with a someone, but don’t miss the opportunity, the odds are really good.

The winning number will be drawn on March 24th at Comedy Night, but you do not have to be present to win.

Please contact Lori Pescatore to reserve your number.
