The Chamber had to sell at least 450 ticketsΒ to triggerΒ grand prize selections that includedΒ a choice among several new vehicles or $20,000 cash. With a final tally of 358 tickets, the contest reverts to a 50/50 drawing, with a minimum prize of $1,000.Β 

In addition, 2nd through 10th place cash prizes will not be awarded.Β

Half the proceedsΒ from the raffle will beΒ split between the Chamber and the Farmington-Farmington Hills Foundation for Youth and Families.Β
