I got it, thanks! What do the proceeds go towards?

Any money above and beyond will go towards next years party.........we do everything out of pocket. Food, Beer, Events, Prizes, guests etc etc
We also give away an MS460 rescue saw to a different fire dept every year.

Trust me this raffles help diminish the cost of the party, but is NOT for profit!
