Annual Mother's Day Raffle Yields $1426.00

Posted by Robert Griffin, Jr on May 04 2006 at 05:00PM PDT
Hello Five Hills Track & Field Family, we are pleased with the team concept of fundraising. Your efforts have yielded another $1,426.00 dollars from our Annual Mother’s Day Raffle. This brings our fund raising efforts up to $3,471.00 to date. Coach Griffin initially teased us with his ticket being pulled four consecutive times by Ashley Duncan, Austin Parker, Brianna Bennett, and Chamaal Turner. The winner of the 2006 raffle was pulled Ashley Duncan. Mrs. Lee, the winner lives in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, the Aunt of Caleel, Chamaal and Chamaya. We want to congratulate the winner and the athlete who raffled the winning ticket, Sub-Youth Caleel Turner. The Five Hills Track Club took time out to award the McArthur Family for their efforts in raffling over 60 tickets and the proud owner of a high speed DVD with remote. Timothy Jones distinguished himself amongst the single family athletes raffling in excess of 30 raffle tickets. He also carried away a supersonic DVD player for his entertainment pleasure. This year, one athlete was given a commitment award, which put him at a disadvantage, but no fault of his own. Jacquil Spell raffle ticket was lingering in the back (mind) seat of a special Five Hills Family’s vehicle. He was given his tickets on Wednesday, May 3. 2006. This young fellow purposefully went out into the community and raffled all his tickets. He even received a special donation. Jacquil is proof that effort counts and we couldn’t over look his feat. We included him in the state of the art high performance DVD players’ recipient list. Please remember every effort counts, as we endeavor to reduce out of pocket expenses while developing sound principals in teamwork and sportsmanship. We have an upcoming Bake Sale on Saturday, May 13, 2006. Every dollar we raise benefits every member of the Five Hills Track & Field Club Family. Coach Griffin says, “We shall help and assist every athlete and family member.” We believe one person can influence many, so don’t be moved by how many raffle tickets you were able or unable to raffle. Again, we thank you for your raffling and support of the vision to reduce out of pocket expenses. “The Team Shall Always Benefit” Jack Rabbits Fundraising Committee
