Week of October 7th
52 Club tickets went home Thursday for Pre-K 3 families and Friday for families with KR 4 - 8th grade students. The 52 Club is a raffle in which three drawings are held every week for 52 weeks. There is a weekly $100 winner, $25 winner, and $10 winner. After determining the winners, the three winning tickets are placed back in the drum for the next week’s drawings. Thus, the previous winners can win repeatedly on the same ticket.
The winners' names appear each week on our website, in the "News You Can Use" email, and in the three Menominee parish bulletins. The checks are mailed to the winners, so please ensure that complete addresses are legibly written on all sold tickets.
Preschool families are required to sell 5 tickets, and families with students in Kindergarten - 8th grade are required to sell 10 tickets. If you would like more tickets to sell, please email the office.
