The deadline to purchase tickets for the 2022 Tennessee Conservation Raffle, held by the Tennessee Wildlife Resources Foundation (TWRF), is Sunday at 11:59 p.m. central.
One hundred percent of the funds from the raffle will be used to support wildlife habitat restoration, according to a release by the Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency (TWRA).
The TWRF put together 10 outdoor experience packages, plus an additional 100 prizes that will be awarded in its 2022 Tennessee Conservation Raffle. This year’s raffle is again highlighted by a $50,000 voucher, which can be applied to a new vehicle from any Mid-South Ford dealership.
Other packages include an elk tag for the Tennessee Premier Elk Zone; a deer hunt on Presidents Island; fishing package featuring a Tracker Pro Team 175 TF; ATV package with a Tracker Off Road 450; turkey hunting package; waterfowl hunting package, an Outdoor Adventure package featuring a $5,000 Academy + Sports Outdoor gift card, a precision long-range shooting package, a Heritage package which includes Tennessee Henry rifle and four lifetime sportsman licenses, and more. Additionally, 100 more winners will receive a bone trapper knife.
A single ticket is $20, three tickets are $50, and 10 tickets are $100. There is no limit to the number of raffle tickets that can be purchased, and the TWRF notes that the more tickets purchased, the better opportunity one has of winning one of the packages. Additionally, those who purchase tickets can get $20 off any purchase of $100 or more at Academy + Sports Outdoors, 20 percent off onX, and 10 percent off Summit Treestands.
Ten winning tickets will be drawn in order and the winners will be asked to prioritize their prize choices in order. The drawing will take place August 16 and the winners will be announced at the August 18-19 meeting of the Tennessee Fish and Wildlife Commission in Gatlinburg, according to the press release by TWRA.
