Win a turkey at Bartlett Volunteer Fire Association raffle

The Bartlett Volunteer Fire Association will host its 57th annual Turkey Raffle at 7 p.m. on Saturday, Nov. 21, at the Bartlett Fire Barn, 218 S. Main Street. Admission is free.

Attendees will have the opportunity to win over 90 fresh Tom turkeys ranging from 16 to 18 pounds. Raffle tickets are $2 a piece or 3 tickets for $5. The famous turkey salad sandwiches will also be handed out at the raffle.

The association will also be raffling off the annual Herbie (30-pound turkey), Gertie (20-pound turkey) and Family (18 pounds) tickets. In addition to the turkeys, winners of Herbie, Gertie and Family will also receive spirits and a $50 Jewel gift certificate. Tickets for Herbie, Gertie and Family can be purchased on-site and prior to the event from the association.

Winners do not have to be present to win. The Bartlett Volunteer Fire Association is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization that has been serving the needs of the community for 118 years. The association donates thousands of dollars to support community organizations and waives the rental fee of the Fire Barn for many charitable fundraisers.
