Bethesda lodge is once again having a raffle to help raise money for scholarships for our upshur county students. All I can say is if you bought raffle tickets last year, we are giving away 6 this year, and we are only selling 200 tickets. So you have a 6 in 200 chance of winning a very nice prize, especially if you like to hunt or collect. Tickets are only $100.00. Help us support our local students! Send me a PM and I will send you the names and models. They are all very nice! We accept Venmo, PayPal, square, checks, and cash! Let’s show upshur county we support our kids! Also you can call me at (903) 841-8627 or 903-570-7185.
