Flynn’s Tire & Auto Service is sponsoring the raffle of a 2014 Camaro SS as part of the Strimbu Memorial Fund’s 25th anniversary BBQ event.
The car, with a sunroof, black leather SS interior, a 6.2L V8 engine and 20-inch aluminum wheels, has a sticker price of almost $43,000. Those wishing to enter the raffle can visit www.winacamaross.com or purchase tickets at Flynn’s Tire & Service locations, from Strimbu Memorial Fund board members or by calling 330-448-4046, ext. 134. Ticket prices are one for $20, three for $50 or eight for $100. The winning ticket will be drawn May 7.
The money raised will be used to further the work of the late Tom and Nick Strimbu Jr. Because this year marks the fund’s 25th anniversary, the amounts of the college scholarships have been increased – there will be 12 $2,500 college scholarships and one $25,000 scholarship to the overall winner, for a total of $55,000 awarded to local high school students.
The 25th Annual Strimbu BBQ is planned for May 7 at the Yankee Lake Ballroom in Brookfield, Ohio, as part of a fund raising effort for the Strimbu Memorial Fund. The event, which usually draws a sell-out crowd of 1,600, netted more than $150,000 in proceeds last year. Tickets are $90 and are available by calling John Holliday at 724-699-8869.
