Summary

The Beaver Island Rural Health Center announced a raffle for a 2010 Chevrolet Cobalt, selling 400 tickets at $100 each and scheduling the drawing for September 6, 2010, to support year-round care.

Evidence limits

The winner and ticket count come from a first-party BIRHC forum report, but the archive does not provide a total for gross or net proceeds.

Sources

  1. BIRHC reported about 260 tickets sold as of September 2, listed final sales locations and drawing logistics, and said proceeds supported operating costs. This is a first-party interim sales report; the later 394-ticket report remains the stronger final forum account, without an audited proceeds total.

  2. A BIRHC representative announced a 2010 Crystal Red Metallic Chevrolet Cobalt, $100 tickets with a maximum of 600, Sally Lounsberry as the $1,000 early-bird winner, and a Labor Day drawing at Beaver Island Lodge. This first-party notice supersedes neither the Beacon’s earlier ticket count nor the later forum report of tickets sold; the archive has no audited sales or proceeds statement.

  3. BIRHC representative Donna Kubic reports that Leslie Colwell won the 2010 Chevrolet Cobalt, 394 tickets were sold, and $425 was donated in lieu of tickets; the post says proceeds support Health Center services but gives no total proceeds.
