The Fire Dept. needs your help with Calcutta ticket sales. This is our yearly fundraiser and we need a set of safety jacks that this Calcutta will pay for. We have less than a month to sell the all our tickets. We only sell 98 tickets and we haven't sold half of them yet. Please call one of the three Firemen listed below or print out this for and send it in. As always your help is greatly appreciated.
Dear Friend & Supporter,

This year as in the past we will sell only 98 tickets at $100.00 each and raffle off ticket #99 and #100 that evening for $10.00 a ticket. The winners have another chance at the prize money. At the end of the raffle, there will be four drawings from among the non-winning tickets for $50.00 each. You must be present to win non-winning draw. The $100.00 ticket will include two dinners. The dinner and drawing will be held at Smugglers Notch Meeting House in the village on Saturday evening, October 03, 2009. Doors open at 6:00 p.m. there will be a full cash bar available; a full buffet will be served at 7:00 p.m. The raffle will follow the meal. Dessert and coffee will be served during this time.
