The Summer Raffle Drawing was held last Saturday at the Yacht Club Bar in Presque Isle. The raffle exceeded our expectations by a considerable amount. In the end we sold 2,029 tickets out of 2,500 printed. After prizes we cleared in excess of $6,000. A very special thanks to Marshall and Charlie who sold a lot of tickets and Mike Brandt who ran around and kept tickets stocked.

On Sunday June 2nd the SnoBunnies operated the Concession Stand at Manitowish Waters weekly Music in the Park event. It was the first time we have done this and it went about as smoothly as possible. We sold all our food before the intermission and sold 92 Summer Raffle tickets as well. We grossed over $1,000 with a net close to $800. Beside the financial aspect, it was one of the more fun events to work, definitely worth our time and we will ask to be included in next year’s schedule.
