One of the highlights of the Festival's Saturday night party is the pilot's raffle. In fact, the prizes have become so sought after lately that people have been known to buy 30 tickets at a time!
All pilots who register for the Festival receive five complimentary raffle tickets. Complimentary tickets will be available during registration on Saturday morning, at The Pulpit, starting around 10:00am.
If you'd like to increase your chances of taking home a raffle prize, then feel free to purchase additional tickets during registration, at $2 apiece, or $5 for three. You'll also have a chance to buy tickets during the Saturday night cook-out and party.
You do not have to be a registered pilot in order to participate in the raffle; friends and family can also buy tickets. However, we reserve the right to limit the winners of certain prizes to those who are pilots, or who are friends/family of pilots.
Contributors for this year's raffle will be listed on the Festival homepage as details about their donations become available; just click on their logos to find out what sort of loot will be up for grabs. And please remember these companies and organizations! Their generosity is what makes our raffle possible.
Speaking of generosity : Don't forget that fund-raising for the McConnellsburg Rescue Squad is one of the major goals of our Festival. Purchasing additional raffle tickets is an easy way for you to help us meet that goal!
The raffle prizes will be on display, along with the trophies for our Just-For-Fun XC Competition, during registration at the Pulpit.
