NIC Really BIG Raffle announced

North Idaho College Foundation’s Really BIG Raffle is set to make someone’s waterfront-living dream a reality this July with the grand prize home located on a secondary waterfront lot in Coeur d’Alene’s Mill River neighborhood. Community members can try their luck for a chance to win this brand new $300,000 home as well as $20,000, $10,000, $3,500 and $2,000 prizes of choice. This marks the 24th year of NIC’s largest annual fundraiser, which is a collaboration between the NIC Foundation and the NIC Carpentry Program.

Only 5,500 raffle tickets will be sold prior to the July 12 drawing at $100 each. Early ticket purchasers can also qualify for additional $2,000 Costco Gift Card.

This year’s grand prize home is a single-level, three-bedroom, two-bath craftsman-style home with a detached garage. The home features an award-winning kitchen design, a living room with a 12-foot vaulted ceiling, and many upgrades throughout. The Mill River neighborhood features a private gated waterfront park with a sandy beach, volleyball courts, barbecue pits and picnic areas.

Tickets can be purchased now at North Idaho outlets including Super 1 Foods, Yoke’s in Post Falls, Stein’s Family Foods, BMC, Buck Knives, the NIC Workforce Training Center and the NIC Foundation Office. Idaho residents can also order by phone or online.
