Students will earn one token for every $5 they raise for Garden Gate. This meansthat if your child raises $50, he/she will get 10 tokens to put into t he raffle boxesfor the prize of their choice! This year, three Grand Prizes will be awarded to thetop three fundraisers. The First Prize is an XBox 360, the Second Prize is an iPodTouch, and the Third Prize is a Nintendo 3DS. There are many more raffle prizes tobe won in addition to these.
