It Has Returned – The Leo Alumni Association Annual $100.00 Raffle Is Back!

TICKETS AVAILABLE BELOW.

By the Way, How’s the Raffle Going?

This year, once again we are pleased to announce that it has been requested that in conjunction with the 100th Anniversary of Leo High School and the 250th Anniversary of the United States of America, that we hold the 10th Annual Leo High School Alumni Association Raffle. We have agreed to comply and we are thereby announcing the continuation of the extremely popular and sought after raffle, and life enhancement opportunity, “THE MAIN EVENT RAFFLE” which will be held in conjunction with our Annual Banquet on April 24, 2026 (We are temporarily pausing the “The Bonus Raffle“, until next year to keep purchasers slightly insatiable, and to focus on the 100th year activities, however if sales continue to be strong, it may be revived).

In addition, as an acknowledgment of the Decennial of the Raffle, the Centennial of the School and the Semiquincentennial of of the country, (we will now dispense with any further “ennials”) we have added even more to this years raffle in the way of two spectacular door prizes which are discussed below after we provide the details on the already spectacular raffle we already have….

THE MAIN EVENT RAFFLE – This is the our Annual Big One, and ticket sales are still limited to only 300 Tickets. We still have the surprisingly large first prize of $10,000, an amount which most people find sufficiently compelling to want to make sure they are in the game. Tickets are only $100 and since there are only 300 tickets sold, each ticket actually puts you in a reasonable spot in the game. This year, in light of the temporary hold on the “Bonus Raffle”, the Main Event Raffle is THE EVENT. However, in the spirit of creating a truly great opportunity for our Alumni, and to keep matters enjoyable, we have added two additional substantial and noticeable other prizes (listed immediately below), in the form of two spectacular door prizes which, are not of that same old thing (money). And, of course, the net proceeds from the raffle all go to the Alumni Association for use in continuing its mission of supporting Leo High School.

Antique Hula Lamp, Better Than a Hawaiian Vacation
So what are the Really Cool Door Prizes? Well you would be surprised how many people have guessed it on the first try, you may be one of them. Yes, it is indeed, two, “BETTER THAN A HAWAIIAN VACATION” packages. Yes it is indeed true, we have acquired two slightly worn, antique “Hawaiian Hula Lamps” (one per prize) two reasonably Complete Mai Tai Mix sets (1944 recipe), one per gift, two sets of two Hawaiian Tiki Mugs with Plastic Straws and Two Hawaii travel booklets (one per prize) and with all of that, you are ready to go (we understand you already have a passable Hawaiian shirt and related gear).
What could possibly be better, a Hawaiian vacation without having to travel in a sticky airline seat on a ten hour flight, hunt down cabs and catch busses, wait three days for your luggage ….. you get the idea. Its perfect… and cool. You will be the envy of a lot of people when they hear about just how cool you are.

So BUY A TICKET OR MORE AND GET ITO THE GAME.

I like the idea of a trip to Hawaii, but I hate to break the vibe.

Details and current purchase options are listed below. You can purchase tickets online, (below) or simply telephone 708-910-1467 and if no one answers, leave a message and a very nice person will call you back and be very happy to sell you a ticket. Good Luck to All!
