The Logan Metro Football Club committee has made the decision to CANCEL the Audi A! raffle effective immediately.
Ticket sales and interest weren’t tracking towards a profit for the club and left LMFC with the risk of not covering costs & potentially out of pocket thousands of dollars.
Every ticket holder will be contacted and refunded in full.
The LMFC committee would like to thank everyone who purchased a ticket and supported the initiative. The club intends to run another major fundraiser in 2017.
