Easter Grocery Grab Raffle

Thanks to everyone in the club who were able to sell our Easter Grocery Grab raffle tickets. The club had a funding shortfall for coaching this season and Marc and Melanie from New World Ilam had offered the club a chance for a grocery grab raffle.

We were able to sell nearly 600 $10.00 tickets and managed to collect all the tickets in that were sold and unsold at Prizegiving and Helen tracked down a couple more on the Thursday for our live draw at 5pm at Burnside Cricket Clubrooms.

The Div 3 team sold the most tickets with Saskia and Craig selling over 40 tickets each.

  • 1st Prize 1202 Kate Brooks (sold by Angela from Social 8s) a 3min Grocery Grab worth $1500.00
  • 2nd Prize 1901 Maria McElroy (sold by Eloise from Premiers) a $200 Cricket Express NZ voucher
  • 3rd Prize 1417 Clark Li (sold by Saskia) $100.00 New World Ilam voucher
  • 4th Prize 1079 Sienna (sold by Addison Stackhouse) $50.00 Cantab Chicken Voucher
  • 5th Prize 1723 Dave Moa (sold by Craig Harris) Tunnel Wash Gold Car Wash

Kate arranged at time with New World Ilam for Thursday 9th at 7:15am and crucially before work, so Kate had a plan to get as much non-food high value as she could before work. After slipping into her running shoes in the carpark Kate was good to go!

Store owner Marc Brokenshire had chat through the rules (like no Alcohol) and Paul was on the time clock and it was all on video. Kate did an amazing job as three minutes is not a lot of time and being recorded in action adds to the pressure.

This is definitely something we would like to run again and we just need to be a little more organised.
