The Cause:
Fire District #1 firefighters are aiming to sell as many tickets as possible to raise money for the Re-duced-Cost Meal Program at School District #1. This program allows for many children in the district to have a meal at breakfast and lunch at a reduced cost. For many students and families, the meals provided through this program are the only meals the children may eat. With the rising cost of food products, the firefighters are asking for your help.
The Prize:
The raffle drawing will be held on January 25th, 2023 at Fire District #1 Headquarters. The lucky winner will be responsible for pick-up and transport of the buffalo meat. The winner need not be present to win. Failure to claim the prize in a timely manner will result in the prize being forfeited back to the raffle for another drawing. This prize will include ~300 pounds of USDA buffalo meat in the following cuts: Brisket, Chuck Roast, Chuck Steak, Arm Roast, Rib Steak, Rib Roast, Flank Steak, Skirt Steak, Flap, Tri-Tip, Sirloin Tip, New York, Tenderloin, Top Sirloin, Top Round, Cube Steak, Rump Roast, Ground, Stew Meat and a special box of Heart, Liver, Tongue, Kidney, and Oxtail.
