The Brown County Child Welfare Board is fundraising through a raffle of a Mossburg Patriot 25-06 rifle with a 3x9x40 Nikon scope.

Tickets are $5.00 and can be purchased from a child welfare board member, Box-In-Mail, Precious Cargo or Weakley Watson Sporting goods at the new location on Early Blvd.  Tickets will be available through noon on November 7th when a lucky winner will be drawn.

This raffle benefits the foster kids of Brown County and their families, helping to provide for their needs such as expenses during back to school, Christmas, birthdays, many other expected and unexpected financial issues encountered when raising kids, and clothing for children who are removed from homes and have absolutely nothing other than the clothes on their backs, according to board members. Above and below are photos of the rifle and scope.
