SWIS District sponsors Football Frenzy Sweepstakes
September - December 2010
Sell tickets, turn in ticket stubs & money June - September 10

Click the logo for the link to the sweepstakes web site.

The Middleton Optimist Club is sponsoring a Football Frenzy Sweepstakes. Cash awards are given for those tickets whose 3 teams have the highest combined scores or the lowest combined scores for the week. There are 17 weeks for the Sweepstakes. The tickets are $20.00 each. If all tickets are sold this year, the club selling the ticket can expect to receive a higher amount for each ticket sold, to be used in their local programs. The Sweepstakes will not be sending any funds to the International Foundation this year, however, the Football Frenzy Sweepstakes committee encourages all clubs that participate to send at least 50% of their earnings from ticket sales to the International Foundation through the SWIS District Foundation Chairman Andy LaVoi, at 22225 West Hillcrest Drive, Waukesha, WI 53186-5390. In this way, the SWIS District will get credit for the donations.

You may contact Fred Dorn - Sweepstakes Chairman - by Email at fdorn@chorus.net

You may contact Andy LaVoi - OI Foundation Representative - by Email at lavoiins@yahoo.com

Thank you for playing! Congratulations to all the winners and look for us again in the summer to play in the 2010 season!
