Want to help by selling tickets to family, coworkers, and friends? We have 2 ways:
1. Purchase tickets for them. You can use the raffle ticket tracking form to take ticket requests (not required , just a helpful tool). This form can be found found at: https://www.noblesvilleband.org/_files/ugd/af2252_5ad1dbf054ea4faaa105a68dd5d3a090.pdf
2. We will also have ticket bundles available that you can "check out" and go sell. Then you can return any unused tickets and money collected to the raffle committee. These bundles will have instructions included with them.
The raffle committee booth will be set up in the NHS north parking lot for ticket bundle pickup and for purchasing raffle tickets every Thursday from 8:00-9:00 pm. Look for our raffle flag!
