… Alan Lesky.

A random drawing was held Sept. 4 at the house of Robert Strauss, who will be leading the reunion’s Schoolbus Tour of Memories on Oct. 12, the day after the reunion. Dozens of slips of paper bearing a number for each purchased chance were put in a Phillies hat held above Strauss’ head, so he couldn’t peek (not that he knew who had which numbers). 

The number 27 was drawn, the master list was unfolded, and No. 27 was found to be one of 10 chances purchased by Lesky.

Not a shock, since Lesky bought twice as many as anyone else.

“Awww shucks! Maybe I’ll purchase more tickets at the 75th Reunion!” quipped fellow raffle buyer Ben Paradee after learning of Lesky’s win.

The prize is four rounds of golf at Woodcrest Country Club, playable from now till the end of 2020.

Thanks to all who participated, since funds will help enhance the event, including the inviting of teachers, as well as support the website and the free Class of 69 Directory.
