Committee sets presale ticket price and waives 'must be present' rule for online raffle
Summary
Organizers set a presale ticket price of $25 and a door price of $30 to incentivize advance purchases and decided online raffle entrants will not have to be present to win. The committee also discussed offering a no-dinner ticket given limited seating (about 40).
The Montgomery Town Library fundraising committee approved ticketing guidance to encourage early sales: presale tickets will be $25 and tickets at the door will be $30. The higher door price is intended to incentivize advance purchases that help staff estimate food quantities.
For raffle logistics, the committee decided to hold the raffle both in person and online and waived the "must be present to win" requirement for online raffle participants to broaden reach. Members noted the garden seating is limited (estimated maximum about 40 people), prompting a discussion about whether to sell a lower-priced no-dinner ticket or label the food offering as "tapas appetizers" rather than a full dinner.
