Buy your tickets before April 3, 2025
The Ausable Bayfield Conservation Foundation (ABCF) is selling 50-50 raffle draw tickets, leading up to April 3, 2025. The 50-50 tickets are in support of needed local community projects that could not happen otherwise.
There are 1,000 tickets printed and the cash prize could be as high as $5,000 if all tickets are sold. Tickets are $10 each.
Chris Keller, of the Exeter Lions Club, is Chair of the Conservation Auction Committee. “Buying a ticket for the 50-50 draw is a great way to show support for your community and to earn a chance to win a large cash prize,” he said.
Although the 35th Conservation Auction is going online, for 2025 (May 12-15), the 50-50 draw will go ahead on Thursday, April 3, 2024 at South Huron Recreation Centre in Exeter. The draw takes place at 8 p.m.
The Conservation Auction is a community fundraiser of the Conservation Foundation, the Exeter Lions Club, and the watershed community.
