Pratts East End Beverage
Pratts East End Beverage would like to address all of the rumors floating around regarding the Harley Davidson that we were chancing off.
On Friday 8/20 we were visited by the PLCB in regards to several minor issues, and one of those issues was the verbiage on the tickets for this bike. After discussing it with the PLCB and the board of the Moose Lodge. The Moose has made the decision to no longer have anything to do with chancing off this bike.
Since we would still like to see this bike won by someone who truly wants it, the owner of Pratt's, a member of Abate, contacted the local chapter of Abate regarding them taking over the chances on this bike and they have agreed to do this.
We have gone around and picked up all of the tickets that were at different locations to be sold and as of this date we have sold 400 tickets on the bike which leave 600 left to be sold. There will be a reprinting of all of the tickets and of the 400 that have been sold we will be transferring the names onto the same ticket number so that the stub that you currently have will match the new ticket. This will take some time to get done but an ETA is currently by the middle of next week. We will have the new stubs down at the beverage so if you would like your portion of the stub just stop down and we can provide that to you. We will make a post once they are available to pick up.
For the new tickets the bike will be the only prize on the new ticket. At another date to be determined we will be using the old ticket stubs along with allowing other people to fill out a stub and will draw tickets to allow someone to win the cornhole boards and the $100 gift certificate for Pratt's East End Beverage that were the other prizes that were listed on the original ticket.
Also, we have been asked by several people where the proceeds of this bike will be going and once all the tickets are sold donations will be made to the following locations, SPCA, Cameron County Ambulance, Volunteer Fire Department, Cameron County Food Bank, Storm Cheerleaders, Storm Football and the Cameron County Outdoor Youth Activities. There are several other non-profits that we are also considering.
We have tried to handle this the best way that we can and if you are not comfortable with these arrangements and would like to have your money refunded just let us know and we will happy to do that also.
We will need to know by 8/28 at the latest if you would like your money refunded as transferring names to new tickets will begin to occur the next day. If anyone has any questions please feel free to contact anyone at the beverage and we would be more then happy to answer any and all questions.
