Our annual Meat & Freezer Raffle is back, and we've added more prizes than ever before.
For those who support our online raffles on a regular basis, this raffle is different. This raffle will include in person tickets as well as online sales. The drawing is held on Saturday, Nov. 7, 2026 during the Mineral City VFD Christmas Craft Show at the Firehouse.
All meat in this raffle is sourced locally from our friends at 3D Meats with locations in Dalton and Massillon.
Online ticket sales end on Friday, Nov. 6 at 1155 pm or when the allocated online ticket volume is sold out, whichever comes first. Online ticket orders will receive an email with their ticket numbers in an attachment. As your orders are processed, a paper ticket matching the number in your email will be added to the drawing. Please make sure your phone number is accurate on the form. If we are unable to reach you using the number provided (ie out of service, typo, etc) we will have to draw an alternate winner due to the perishable nature of the prizes.
Winners must pick up their prize within 2 weeks of drawing, and prizes must be claimed at the Mineral City Fire Station. We'll call winners to make arrangements for pickup.
Drawings begin in the 10 am hour, with 2 winners drawn each hour for our Meat for a Week freezer meat bundles. All hourly winners will be added back into the drum for the large prize drawings.
Large prize drawings begin at 3 pm. Winners of a large prize will NOT be added back into the drum.
Tickets are just $1 each or 6 for $5, and can be purchased online or in person from any MCVFD Firefighter.
Proceeds benefit the Mineral City Volunteer Fire Department, Inc.
