SOAR holding Superbowl ticket raffle

Sisters Organization for Activities and Recreation (SOAR) is holding a raffle for two tickets to Super Bowl XVII in San Diego on January 26, 2003.

The tickets include airfare from Portland (or a comparable site) and three nights lodging at the Cardiff Country Inn.

The Super Bowl tickets were donated by Jeri and Dan Fouts and airfare by Susan and Phil Arends at Desert Wings Travel. The Fouts also acquired the lodging and added to the package two tickets to Sea World and the San Diego Zoo. Proceeds will benefit middle school sports.

"We've wanted to help SOAR for years and especially after SOAR was given the responsibility for Sisters Middle School sports," said Susan Arends, speaking for the group. "We recognize the financial struggle this is for SOAR and we feel very grateful. It is an enormous undertaking."

The Super Bowl will be at Jack Murphy Stadium, home of the NFL San Diego Chargers, where Dan Fouts was a record-breaking quarterback. The stadium is smaller than most of the Superbowl-host stadiums, so tickets will be in tremendous demand.

The Cardiff Country Inn near San Diego has easy access to all areas of the city and beaches. The donors noted that January is a great time of year to enjoy the warm and perfect weather of San Diego.

Tickets are available at SOAR and at high school and middle school sports events or from any board member. They are also available at Fotos in a Flash.

They are $5 each, five for $20 and 13 for $50. The SOAR office is located on Locust Street across from Sisters Elementary School.
