Council 807 in Dover held their annual Parish Picnic raffle over 5 weekends beginning the weekend after July 4th and ending at the Parish of the Assumption parish picnic on August 9th. 7 Knights participated in ticket sales after each weekend Mass over the 5 week period. With the exception of one prize which was purchased for $300, all other prizes were donated by Knights, organizations, or parishioners. Prizes included Patriots tickets, various gift cards, a set of golf clubs and a round of golf for 4 people, a gas grill, auto detailing certificate, and USA 250th anniversary items. The raffle was a huge success with $4645 brought in (with a cost of $300, net proceeds were $4345). These funds were distributed as follows: 50% to the Wounded Warrior Project, 25% to Parish of the Assumption, 25% to Council 807 charitable endeavors. Over the course of the raffle and speaking with parishioners during ticket sales after Masses and at the picnic, we were able to recruit 3 new members who will take their installation degree in the near future.
