BARCS Whiskey Raffle Presented by Blue Pit BBQ
Raise a glass and help save lives! From November 4-17, every $10 donation will earn you an entry into our Whiskey Raffle hosted by Blue Pit BBQ to benefit animals in need at BARCS. And this year, we have TWO incredible grand prizes and even more chances to win:
Grand Prize #1: A bottle of The Last Drop Release No. 28 Signature Blend
Grand Prize #2: A 3-night Kentucky Bourbon Trail getaway for FOUR! Enjoy luxury accommodations in Lexington, exclusive distillery tours and tastings, a private club dining experience, and a visit to Keeneland or a local horse farm. [View full prize details]
But that's not all! For every $1,500 in raffle tickets sold, we'll unlock another bottle of whiskey for an additional prize drawing. The more tickets sold, the more chances to win!
How It Works
Follow along on the Facebook event page to see each bottle! A new bottle will be unlocked at every $1,500 donation level; a limited edition The Last Drop Release No. 28 Signature Blend bottle will be the grand finale. This was generously donated by Blue Pit BBQ.
When the raffle comes to a close, multiple winners will be drawn; one bottle will go to one winner. The first person selected will receive the The Last Drop Release No. 28 Signature Blend bottle, the second person will receive the Kentucky Bourbon Trail getaway, and then the remaining winners will receive the other bottles as they are assigned by number.
Drawing on November 18
The winners will be drawn at Blue Pit BBQ on Wednesday, November 18 at our Whiskey Raffle Pawty from 6:30-9:00 p.m. The pawty will include special whiskey tastings, door prizes, and a cigar lounge to enjoy!
We highly encourage those entering the raffle to be present for this drawing. You must be present to win the smaller bottles that have been unlocked along the way. You do not have to be present to win the Grand Prize Bottle or the Kentucky Bourbon Trail getaway. If you are not present for the drawing and you win one of the grand prizes, you will be contacted via email or phone.
*Must be 21+ to enter. Unlimited entries allowed. The grand prize bottle cannot be shipped and must be picked up at BARCS if the winner is not present for the drawing.
