AHSP has received the following items for its 2015 raffle, to take place at 4:30 on Sunday. Everyone will receive some raffle tickets with their registration, and more can be purchased when you stop at the registration tent or from committee volunteers before the raffle itself.
All proceeds go to benefit The Mountain Institute and its programs.
There are 3 types of color-coded tickets:
Yellow tickets are issued to youth attendees, and can be used for the items reserved for them, or for the general items.
Blue tickets can be used for the grand prize, or for general items.
Red tickets can be used only for general items (that is, NOT for youth items or the grand prize.)
Only red and yellow tickets can be bought. Blue tickets are limited to what you receive with your registration.
Some adjustments may be made in prizes and tickets as final donations are received. Check on-site for the final prizes.
