Squamish Lions Club selling 50/50 raffle tickets for Easter Seals camp

Staff report
May 13, 2021 1:55pm

The Squamish Lions Club is selling 50/50 online raffle tickets to send kids and adults with disabilities to Easter Seals Camps both in person and online this summer.

“We’re excited to join this virtual fundraiser and help raise funds for one of our club projects – the kids of Easter Seals Camps,” says Mike Jenson, Squamish Lions Club President.

“We’ve been actively involved in Easter Seals Camps for many years, and with one of their camps being right here in Squamish, this fundraiser is extra special for our community.”

With every ticket purchased, funding will ensure campers receive the onsite support they need, receive healthy meals and snacks, and have access, equipment and supplies for a full camp program whether it’s in person or virtually at home.

“Easter Seals Camps provide a lot of fun and skills to campers with disabilities in our community, and though Easter Seals couldn’t run their full overnight program due to the pandemic, they are hosting a family weekend at Camp Squamish this year, day camps and virtual camps,” adds Jenson.

“Our Lions Club has been out to the camp a number of times this year helping to get the grounds and facilities ready for the kids!”

Raffle tickets are on sale for 3 for $10, 15 for $20, 35 for $40 and 100 for $100, and will be available for purchase until midnight May 31, 2021 at www.eastersealsbcy.rafflenexus.com/a/squamishlions.

To purchase a ticket, you must be 19 years of age or older and a resident of British Columbia. The winning ticket will be drawn at noon on June 1st, live on the Easter Seals Facebook page.

This year, Easter Seals is offering a number of different camp options for persons with disabilities from ages 6 to 49 years: weekend Family Camps at Camp Squamish, Camp Shawnigan and Camp Winfield, City Adventure Day Camps in Vancouver, Victoria & Kelowna, an Outdoor Adventure Day Camp at Camp Winfield, and seven weeks of online Virtual Camps.

Get your 50/50 ticket today and help give those with disabilities a bit of joy this summer, Jensen adds.
