SWORMVILLE - The St. Mary's faith community announces its first meat raffle, organized by the St. Mary School Home School Association. With an event that is popular throughout the area, the meat raffle will feature a variety of meats from Latina Boulevard Foods, raffled off by Mike "The Meat Man" Demmin's team.
This event takes place on Saturday, March 9, from 7 p.m. until 10 p.m. at the St. Mary School gymnasium, with doors opening 6 pm.
The event will include multiple rounds of meat raffles, during which attendees may purchase tickets for any of the meat lots they wish to potentially win. In addition, raffles will be held at the event for a 50/50 split, chest freezer and lottery ticket assortment. Attendees are encouraged to bring cash in the form of singles to expedite raffle sales throughout the course of the evening.
Tickets include unlimited soda, draft beer and wine, with craft beer and pizza also available for purchase. Attendees may bring their own snacks. A strict no-outside-alcohol rule will be enforced, and is intended for adults 21 and older.
Proceeds from this fundraiser will benefit St. Mary School, a premier Pre-k through eighth-grade institution. Prior fundraising event proceeds have been used to purchase amenities and upgrades for the school such as water fountains, air conditioning, technology items and a scoreboard, providing an enriched experience for students.
Tickets are $7 each via pre-sale and $8 at the door. Tables of eight may also be purchased in advance for $50. A limited number of tickets will be sold and pre-sale reservations are strongly encouraged.
