Great Scot Raffle Tickets Now On Sale
Advertise this flyer on your social media for this Gift Card raffle!
We have offered our skaters the Great Scot raffle ticket option for several years with great success. Each raffle ticket sells for $5 and is a chance to win a $200 Great Scot gift card that can be used at ANY Great Scot Community Market.
How can the raffle ticket sale benefit your skater? The first 4 tickets sold ($20) by each skater goes toward the purchase of the gift card. For each additional ticket sold (5+), the $5 is deducted from the skater’s membership fees. That is 100% profit!
Each of us pays our membership fees anyway – why not sell raffle tickets to family and friends and purchase the remaining tickets to cover your account balance? This allows other to help offset your ice feeds and provide you with multiple changes to win the gift card.
Raffle tickets are sold September 16th through October 15th and the drawing will be October 16th.
The Great Scot raffle runs through October 15 and the top two sellers will be chosen to ride the float in the Halloween Parade!
This is the second year Findlay Silver Blades has offered the Dominos Slice the Price fundraiser, but this year the profits will reduce a skaters Findlay Silver Blades and/or Silver Streaks membership costs.
Each card sells for $10 and provides UNLIMITED BOGO Large pizzas at numerous Dominos stores throughout Ohio and 14 additional states (see website for participating stores). The Slice the Price card can be used multiple times (even in the same order) until June 30, 2022.
Slice the Price cards can be purchased by friends and family ONLINE and the cards will be mailed directly to them. No collection of money or delivery by your family. If you have individuals who would rather not purchase online, collect their money and address and Findlay Silver Blades can place one online order for all physical orders.
Again, how does the sale of Slice the Price cards benefit your skater? There is a $5 profit for each card sold. The first 2 cards sold ($10) by each skater will be used to cover shipping fees for physical orders. For each additional ticket sold (3+), the $5 is deducted from the skater’s membership or team fees. And, for every 12 cards your skater sells – you receive a free Slice the Price card.

How Often Should You Sharpen Your Skates?
Did you know skate blades that are dull prevent skaters from successfully learning/completing moves/footwork and increase their chances of falling? Figure skates need to be sharpened either after 20-30 hours of ice use or every other month - whichever comes first.
