Rotary Club’s lottery features $5,000 prize

The Annandale Rotary Foundation is selling lottery tickets that could net the winner a grand prize of $5,000. Second prize is $1,500, and there will be four $250 prizes.

Tickets are $100 each. Only 350 tickets are printed – but only 271 were sold last year – so there’s a good chance of winning. Several people can share a single ticket.

The winning tickets will be drawn March 21 at the Rotary Club’s Food and Wine Affair at the Cue Club Café, 7014 Columbia Pike, Annandale, 5-7 p.m. You do not need to be present to win.

To purchase a ticket, mail $100 to Bob Kahane, 7840 Thor Drive, Annandale, VA 22003 by March 11. Last-minute purchases can also be accepted 5-5:15 p.m. at the Food and Wine Affair.

The lottery is the foundation’s biggest annual fundraiser, and the proceeds will support the Rotary Club of Annandale’s charitable projects, such as student service clubs at Annandale High School and Northern Virginia Community College, scholarships, Annandale Christian Community for Action, other local programs to help the needy, and Rotary International’s humanitarian projects, such as disaster relief and clean water.
