The Penny Social in
Foster Lodge

Starting in 2014, we have made what is normally our door prizes for Duck Race, into a "Penny Social". Meaning, all prizes not $100 or greater are available for guests to bid on with tickets. Everyone buying a meal got a ticket at the door, and were able to buy more tickets in Foster Lodge. Guests were then able to pick which prize they could focus their tickets.
Later while the winners of the major prizes are organized, the announcer pulls all tickets from the penny social bags, and gives prizes to those winners. Then, after that drawing is over, their tickets go into another, drawing for more additional prizes that were not available earlier. All winners must be present for this contest.
This is a great opportunity for local businesses to promote themselves and possibly appeal to new customers, especially local folks. Roughly 50% of the guests are from the local area.
If you are interested in donating either a major prize or penny social prize, email us at info@oswegatchie.org. As we receive contributions to the penny social, we will post them here and credit donors with in the captions in each photo!
