We need many volunteers to make Extravaganza a success. For more information on our biggest fundraiser, click here.
- We need people to help sell tickets and sponsorships.
- We need people and companies to donate services and items for a silent auction and basket raffle. In addition, every traveling delegation is expected to donate one such basket.
- Other activities at Extravaganza include bingo and dessert provided by chapter members.
- Here’s how the Extravaganza reverse raffle works: Raffle ticket numbers associated with each $100 ticket are placed on a large number board displayed at the front of the dining room. At a designated time after dinner, the raffle tickets are drawn one by one and the numbers on the board are removed. When your number is called you are “out” and you are invited to pick a consolation prize. When the board is down to 10 numbers, the remaining ticket holders meet as a group and decide how to proceed. They might decide to split the pot evenly among themselves. Or they might decide to try their luck with more drawings.
