The 25th Annual Strimbu BBQ is planned for Wednesday, May 7, 2014 at the Yankee Lake Ballroom in Brookfield as part of a fund raising effort for the Strimbu Memorial Fund.
To mark its 25th year, organizers decided to hold a raffle for a 2014 Camaro SS as part of the fund raising for the Fund. This iconic muscle car painted in “Red Hot,” comes with a sunroof, black leather SS interior, a 6.2L V8 engine and 20-inch aluminum wheels, among its many features. The Camaro has a sticker price of almost $43,000.
Money raised through the raffle, which is sponsored by Flynn’s Tire & Auto Service, will be used to further the work of the late Tom and Nick Strimbu Jr. Also this year, because of the 25th anniversary, the amounts of the college scholarships have been increased. There will be twelve $2,500 college scholarships and one $25,000 scholarship to the overall winner, for a total of $55,000 awarded to local high school students. Dollar-wise, this is the most any local organization awards in scholarships.
Those wishing to purchase tickets for the car raffle can easily go to the website www.WinACamaroSS.com or can purchase tickets at various outlets. Ticket prices are one for $20, three for $50 or eight for $100. The lucky ticket will be drawn on May 7, 2014. Rules for the raffle can also be found on the website. |
