Giants Raffle Ticket Event Canceled
Bad weather cancels scoops event, but raffle tickets are still available for sale
Mahwah Fire Company 2 has canceled a scheduled event Wednesday night due to the weather. Firefighters were set to sell raffle tickets to win two season tickets to see the NY Giants at the Mahwah Dairy Queen Wednesday night.
Firefighters say the event was canceled due to the storms, downed power lines and power outages Wednesday. They said they hope to reschedule the event before the raffle ticket drawing, set to happen July 26.
Raffle tickets are $10, and the season tickets are worth about $3,000, firefighters say. The money they raise from ticket sales will be used to fund the department’s annual Santa Detail ride through Mahwah, to furnish the interior of the firehouse, for a yearly installation dinner for new members, and a memorial mass and breakfast in honor of fallen firefighters.
Interested residents can still purchase tickets by calling 201-529-2711 or emailing mahwahfireco2@yahoo.com.
