Lobster Festival Draw – a perfect fundraising opportunity

 

To help offset some of the costs for promoting the Festival, the Lobster Festival Committee will be having 8 draws for a total of 80 pounds of lobsters. Tickets will be sold until June 1.

At the Lobster Festival official opening ceremonies on June 4, eight draws will be made - each for 10 pounds of lobster. Local fishermen and buyers donate some of the lobsters for the draws.  A special THANK YOU to them for their support of the Festival.

The tickets sales also provide volunteers in the County with an opportunity to raise money for their own use. Any group that sells tickets keeps half of their sales for their group. Both the Lobster Festival Committee and the group selling benefit.

Tickets are available for distribution to groups interested in fundraising from each of the Recreation Offices in Shelburne County .
