Playhouse raffle
There’s still plenty of time to purchase tickets for a chance to give a child a dream playhouse this holiday season.
Williams Automotive, Sutherland’s, Countrywide Home Loans, Bill Redeker Construction and Deputy Police Chief Mike Williams teamed up to build the ultimate playhouse to be raffled off.
For $5 a ticket, with donations going to the Peter Pan Playground Fund, the playhouse will be going home later this month. The playhouse is eight feet high inside, 11 feet high outside and 12 feet long with a front porch and a shingled roof. Between materials and labor, about $3,500 went into the playhouse.
The drawing for the playhouse will be Dec. 18. Raffle tickets may be purchased at Williams Automotive, Sutherland’s, Countrywide Home Loans and the Emporia Chamber of Commerce. The winner will be contacted at the phone number provided on the ticket. Free delivery will be available in Lyon County.
