Reverse Raffle Ends Up 50/50!

M.A. Andrews

December 19, 2010

Jim Brown received his $5,000 from Chamber Executive Director, Rick Austin.

It was late in the evening and Jim Bishop continued to call out the ticket numbers. The anticipation grew as he got down to only four numbers, then three, and then two. At that point, the ticket holders of the remaining numbers, Jim Brown, with ticket 133, and Vance Sisk, with ticket 329, stopped the show and huddled. The decision? Rather than let the winning number remain when the next number was called, they decided to split the $10,000! Each would get $5,000.00 and we will never know what number was about to be called and eliminated. Both Jim Brown and Vance Sisk were presented with their winning checks at the Rutherford Chamber of Commerce offices. Pictured here, Jim Brown who is retired, received his check from Chamber Executive Director, Rick Austin. Vance Sisk of Fast Way Oil Change was given his check from Chamber Board President, Gene Booth. Both were happy with their decision.

This years Reverse Raffle had a new look. The food just kept coming to the delight of the crowd. Friends, family and supporters all joined in this festive affair. It was really "quite a show!" The new look was very well received. We can't wait until next year!
