We got together and had the opportunity to talk to our fellow Rotarians and enjoy ourselves, make a toast with complimentary Mimosa's and have a wonderful time! It was a wonderful chance to get to know everyone in the club.

Raffle: Every Week!

Show me the money! We will have a “BIG JACKPOT” raffle drawing every week. Here are the rules.

- The drawing will be held every week after the speaker concludes. Tickets can be bought up to that time. $1 for 1 ticket, $5 gets 6 tickets.

- A ticket will be drawn at the end of the meeting.

- But the weekly winner, will not automatically get the jackpot. To ensure we have a BIG JACKPOT, we then ask the winner to draw the “winning card” from a standard deck of 52 cards. If they pull the “winning card”, they get the BIG JACKPOT.

- How do we determine the “winning card”? After the jackpot is won, we will draw one card from a standard deck of 52 cards. That card becomes the “winning card.” It is reinserted into the deck.

- If a non-winning card is drawn by the weekly drawing winner, that card is discarded. This means the odds of drawing the “winning card” will improve every week as the BIG JACKPOT grows.

- The jackpot is rolled over every week until the “winning card” is drawn.

- The value of the BIG JACKPOT will be reported in the newsletter.

- Half of the winning pot goes to the Addison Midday Rotary Foundation.
