Community Sweepstakes Social Event Raises $24,000 including $5,000 for the Warren Bailey Community Service Scholarship




WOW - What a wonderful community night at the Annual Community Challenge Sweepstakes Social on the M/S Mount Washington dockside at Weirs Beach on Sept. 13.


The 4th Annual Sweepstakes Social was a huge success and a lot of fun.  Together the event raised $19,000 for the Greater Lakes Region Children's Auction and funded the Annual $5K “Warren Bailey Community Service Scholarship.”


The event was held to help teams raise funds for the Greater Lakes Region Children’s Auction, with a goal of surpassing the $356,456 raised last year by the 2023 Challenge Teams.


Ten ticket purchasers received $15,000 in prizes, with a matching $15,000 going to the 2024 Challenge Team of their choice.


Congratulations to the winners and their Challenge Teams receiving “Match Cash!”
