The drawing for the Rocky Mountain Goat raffle license will be held on August 10th, 2005. Raffle tickets may be purchased on-line at http://fishhunt.dfw.wa.gov/ You will be transferred to a different website and you will want to look down the left hand margin of that new site for “Purchase a Raffle Ticket”. Click on “Purchase a Raffle Ticket” and you’ll be prompted through the process. You may also acquire tickets by calling toll free 1-866-246-9453. These raffle tickets are $5.98 each this year. The deadline on the raffle tickets is shown as August 7, 2005 on the flyer from the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife that I picked up at the FNAWS convention. Other notes from the flyer are:
- Anyone may participate in raffles and there is no limit to the number of raffle tickets an individual can purchase, but no refunds will be given.
- Once-in-a-lifetime restriction does not apply to raffle and auction permit holders.
- Winners will be notified by August 15 and do not need to be present to win.
- One winner will be drawn and the license and tag costs will be paid using the raffle funds.
- See 2005 Hunting Pamphlet for rules and details.
