We sold 291 tickets and after the $10,000 giveaway and expenses, we raised about $18,000 for our local Brainerd Rotary Foundation.
Congratulations to Rick Adams and Amy Price who split the $5,000. It was so exciting as they were both present to make that decision to split the winnings. Way to go everyone!
