The raffle is for a Remington 870 Express shotgun donated by Past Grand Master Counts. Tickets are $5 ea., 6 for $25, or 25 for &100. These tickets can be purchased from any member of Orient #905. The skeet shoot will be held at the Spike Box Ranch west of Benjamin, Texas on April 17, 2010 and will be a blast!
