Boardman River Clean Sweep Raffle
June 7, 2014
The BRCS Raffle was held on June 7, 2014 at the Kingsley Library Adams Fly Festival. Our raffle is shared with the KHS-ODAC club whose members assist us at two major river cleanups. It is shared with the Grand Traverse Conservation District who provide the BRCS with generous assistance in many ways. It is shared with the Benzie Conservation District who do cleanups on the Betsie River and clear the Upper Platte River for us. The Betsie and Platte are rivers which we have adopted as our own.
This year, we sold more tickets than ever before and had more prizes that ever before.
We want to thank our sponsors for their generous donations and also we want to thank those of you who bought raffle tickets. Whether you win or lose, you make a donation to one of these worthy river stewardship organizations and your money will come back to you in the knowledge that our rivers are being cared for.
