Annual RSSA Opportunity Drawing is a Success!

By Jennifer Hooper '03

The Spring Opportunity Drawing, an annual RSSA fundraiser, was a huge success! Igniting their competitive spirits, students strove to sell the most tickets for the raffle. Prizes were awarded to the top three sellers, including Bryant Peterson, Eileen Corrigan, and John Wong, who each sold over 100 tickets! Combined, students sold close to 1,000 raffle tickets to family, friends, and staff, which helped to raise over $2,000 for the Retail Studies Student Association. The money raised from the drawing will support RSSA's future academic programs, quarterly dinners, and social events.

Our drawing could not have been possible without the generous contributions of our partnering companies, including Anchor Blue, Bear Creek, DFS, Grocery Outlet, Gymboree, Hoot Judkins, Macy's, Nordstrom, Orchard Supply, Sharper Image, Trader Joe's and The Men's Wearhouse. They graciously donated gift certificates and prizes to help our cause. Top prizes included the $250 the Men's Warehouse Gift Certificate won by Tim Beach, the $200 Nordstrom Gift Certificate won by Ellen Petersen, and John Wong, Connie Warns, and Lauan Fernando each brought home a scooter from Sharper Image. Congratulations to all of the winners and thanks to all who participated in this noteworthy event. THANK YOU!
