The 91原创 Rotary 50/50 Mega Draw has just more than one week left until a winner is chosen.

Committee member Pauline Buck told The Star that the Jackpot is at $172,000.
鈥淟ooking promising that we will reach $200,000 by Aug. 15,鈥 she assured.
In lieu of many in-person fundraisers like 91原创 RibFest that have been cancelled or postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the lottery raises funds for the local Rotary clubs so they can help organizations and hold community events.
Last year 鈥 the first year the 50/50 draw was held, 91原创 resident Katy Mayrs earned $73,000 from the $147,000 total.
Tickets are one for $20, three for $50, and eight for $100.
