DACF Raffle Features Husker Football Tickets

The Dorchester Area Community Foundation is hosting a raffle to raise money for the Foundation. According to Foundation chair Carol Olson, two Husker football tickets were donated to the Foundation by state Senator Russ Karpisek of Wilber.

The football tickets are for the Oct. 13 game, when the Huskers meet Oklahoma State at Memorial Stadium in Lincoln. The pair of tickets, valued at $104 , are for section 28 (west stadium), row 7. You need not be present to win.

Prices for the raffle tickets are: $2 each, 3 for $5, or 10 for $10.

Other prizes include a $75 second place prize; a $50 third place award; and a $25 fourth place prize.

The prizes will be awarded at halftime during the Sept. 28 Dorchester football game, which is homecoming for the Longhorns.

All Foundation board members have access to the raffle tickets. Those interested in raffle tickets may contact any of the following members for a chance to win a prize -- and the opportunity to support the Dorchester Foundation:

  1. Good idea Foundation members. Nice job. I'll buy $20 worth. I hope the Huskers improve their tackling skills buy the 13th. Maybe they should watch Dorchester play.

  2. Thanks Bob for the support! We have to thank Sen. Karpisek for donating the tickets and Jamie Karl for making the request on behalf of the Dorchester Foundation.

    The proceeds from this raffle will be earmarked for "Welcome to Dorchester" signs. It has been suggested that we use the brick from the old school and implement them in the signs. I think that's a great idea..........any other ideas out there??

    Thanks for all the support so many have given to the Foundation.
