Summer Stock-Up Raffle
Get ready for the ultimate summer stock-up!
Main Street West Branch is raffling off a pallet of Busch Light — that's more than 2,340 cans of beer — and one lucky winner will take home the prize this August.
Not a beer drinker? No problem! The winner may instead choose $1,500 in Downtown Dollars, redeemable at participating downtown West Branch restaurants and retail businesses.
TICKETS ARE $10 EACH or 15 for $100.
You do not need to be present to win. Must be 21+ to participate.
Proceeds from this fundraiser support Main Street West Branch's year-round work to strengthen our historic downtown through events, beautification projects, small business support, and community initiatives.
Raise a glass and support Main Street this summer!
