Fundraisers
TURKEY-RAMA - FALL
The Turkey-Rama has become an annual tradition here at Our Lady's for about 25 years now. Every year on the Saturday before Thanksgiving, the fundraiser is held. Our Turkey-Rama was put on hold for two years due to COVID, but it came back in 2022. It is a raffle of enormous proportion. We give away 60 turkeys, 40 baskets of vegetables, 40 gallons of cider, 40 pies and 40 hardy mum plants. Along with those raffles, we have close to if not more than 100 raffles on our raffle tables; from sporting event tickets, lottery frames, afghans and so much more. If you have never experienced a "Rama" at Our Lady's, you have to come to one. I guarantee you will have a great time. Admission is free. Food is served; American chop suey, pizza, hot dogs and nachos. If you would like more information, call Sharon in the parish office.
MEAT RAFFLE CALENDARS - SPRING
Everyone loves to grill. Our Spring fundraiser is a meat raffle calendar. A winner is drawn daily during specified month and that person wins an amazing package of meat. Those who have participated and won in the past can verify the taste of the meats are delicious. Each calendar is $20.00 and will be sold two months prior to the month of drawing. Keep an eye out in the weekly bulletin and on our website for upcoming details.
CASH DRAWING - SUMMER
500 Minimum tickets sold - 600 Maximum tickets sold - $50.00 PER TICKET
Who doesn't like to win money! How many winners depends on how many tickets we sell. The drawing is the last Sunday in August. The weekly bulletin and website are updated with the total sold to date so everyone knows the total. As you can see below, the more tickets we sell, the more winners there are. Thank you in advance for your support.

TURKEY-RAMA 2022
SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 19, 2022 - WAITING LIST IS ACTIVE
We are grateful to God to be able to resume our Turkey-Rama this year.
We have filled the room so I have started the waiting list. On Monday, November 14, I will call all who have reserved to make sure their numbers are the same.
To help accommodate those on the waiting list who cannot get in that evening or for those not yet ready to be in large crowds, I am going to open the doors between 1:00-3:00pm on November 19 so they can come to browse the raffles, purchase raffle tickets and place in bins of prizes you hope to win. The event will be livestreamed on our parish Facebook page as well.
If you have any questions, please contact Sharon Micco.
CONGRATULATIONS TO OUR AUGUST 27 RAFFLE $1,000 WINNERS...Thank you to all who participated in this raffle, your support of Our Lady's is truly appreciated.

TURKEY-RAMA (Suspended until further notice due to COVID) - Saturday before Thanksgiving Day (REPLACED IN 2020 AND 2021 WITH WINTER MEATS 'N MORE CALENDAR DUE TO COVID-19 PANDEMIC)
2022 STILL BEING DETERMINED
The Turkey-Rama has become a tradition each year here at Our Lady's for about 25 years now. Every year on the Saturday before Thanksgiving, the fundraiser is held. It is a raffle of enormous proportion. We give away 60 turkeys, 40 baskets of vegetables, 40 gallons of cider, 40 pies and 40 hardy mum plants. Along with those raffles, we have close to if not more than 100 raffles on our raffle tables; from sporting event tickets, lottery frames, afghans and so much more. If you have never experienced a Rama at Our Lady's, you have to come to one. I guarantee you will have a great time. Admission is free. All tickets sold throughout the night are $1.00 each. Food is also served; American chop suey, pizza, hot dogs and nachos. If you would like more information, call Sharon in the parish office.
SUMMER FUNDRAISER (a.k.a. Ham-a-Rama) (Suspended until further notice due to COVID) - Last Saturday in April (REPLACED IN 2020 AND 2021 WITH SUMMER MEATS 'N MORE CALENDAR DUE TO COVID-19 PANDEMIC)
The Hamrama is basically the same as Turkey-Rama, only in place of turkey, we raffle Hams and the ham-a-rama is only in its fifth year where turkey-rama is ongoing more than 20 years. The Ham-a-Rama originally started around Easter time which is why we did hams. We are now moving it to a Spring event, getting away from Easter because when Easter is early, March is not a good time to plan a big fundraiser because we never know what Mother Nature has in store for us. We now celebrate our Spring Rama on the last Saturday of April. Last year, we added various meat packages to the Ham-a-Rama, somewhat like a "meat raffle" and that went over very well. So we will continue with that. For more information, contact Sharon in the parish office.
