Raffles/Silent Auction

There will be a 50/50 Raffle and a few other large raffles at the Gator Stage in the evenings only. In order to not disrupt the music, we hope to have a silent auction for select items this year. Winning numbers for the smaller raffle items will be listed at the raffle table so raffle holders can come by to see if they won.  

Please contact sffamc@gmail.com  if  you  would  like  to donate items for the raffle  or silent auction.
