Call 907-245-1251 or stop by the Alaska Airmen Association office (4200 Floatplane Drive, Anchorage, Alaska 99502) to buy your tickets. Alaska state law prohibits online sales of raffle tickets, association officials explain. Prices are 10 for $500, 5 for $275, or 1 for $60. Just 12,500 tickets will be sold.
The drawing will be held on Sunday, May 5, 2019, at the Great Alaska Aviation Gathering, but you don’t have to be present to win.
Proceeds from this raffle enable the Alaska Airmen Association to further its mission to protect, preserve, and promote general aviation, and to further the association’s advocacy and youth outreach efforts.
