HOW A SPLIT THE POT RAFFLE WORKS
1.Buy a ticket
Buy a ticket to our 50/50 Raffle. Each raffle ticket you purchase counts as one entry into the drawing. Also you will be entered into a weekly drawing for 2026 season tickets (over $250 in Value)
2.See if you've won
See if you are the winner during the draw on August 1st at the opening night of the Broadway in the Boundary Waters Gala.
3.Claim your prize
Pickup your prize winnings at the gala or arrange a pick up afterwords. You don't need to be present to win but it does make it more fun if you are! You do not need to be present to win. If you're selected as the winner, we’ll contact you to coordinate prize pickup or delivery.
4.Contribute to Charity
Half of the proceeds will go to supporting Broadway in the Boundary Waters programming, scholarships and productions.
Enter NLAA’s 50/50 Summer Raffle and you could win up to $5,000. One winner will take home half the total jackpot (maximum pot: $10,000), and the other half supports NLAA’s Broadway in the Boundary Waters programming, scholarships, and productions
For every raffle ticket you purchase, your name will be entered once into the grand prize drawing.
So if you buy 30 tickets, your name goes in 30 times — increasing your chances of winning the 50/50 jackpot of up to $5,000.
The grand prize winner will be randomly drawn and announced on August 1, 2025, during opening night of the Broadway in the Boundary Waters Gala. You do not need to be present to win.
