Children with Disabilities Banquet & Raffle
Every October we hold a Raffle and Banquet at The Beef House. The grand prize is $15,000 and there are four prizes of $500 as well as numerous other prizes.
Only 300 tickets are sold so the chances of winning are very good. Dinner only tickets are also available for $35. Numerous door prizes are given out, as well as having the great show of pulling each and every ticket out of the bin and reading the names (which is a LOT more fun than it might seem!) It is a fun night for everyone.

Rt. 63 and I-74 in Covington, IN
Cocktails at 6:00 - Dinner at 6:30
(please note: times are Central Standard Time!)
Contact us today to get your tickets for this year! They are going fast so act now!
The money raised by the Banquet & Raffle used to be specifically directed to our Children with Disabilities Summer Camp but the costs of the camp have far outpaced the income from the Raffle. Now the Raffle profit goes into our general fund where it can be used to help pay for the Summer Camp o our many other projects.
AMBUCS members coordinate the Banquet, obtain the door prizes, and sell the tickets. Ticket printing costs have been donated by Korora for the last few years. The Beef House provides the banquet hall and the excellent meals at a discount (and buy a number of tickets too!). People all around the community, just like you, buy tickets and join us for the fun.
Bob Brown, Steve Diveley, Kevin Jamieson, Andy Phillips for Cathy Reardon and Bob Huffman are the last five standing in the 33rd annual AMBUCS $15,000 Raffle held at the Beef House on Oct. 5, 2007. |
Bob Brown wonders what he's just done to his friend Steve Diveley. Brown decided not to split for the first round. Dively took home $500. Brown softened his resolve and the final four split $16,500, each taking home $4,125 and a full stomach for their $130 investment (2007). |
