DeerProject2014ATVRaffle

Big Country Ford and House of Wheels have donated a red Yamaha Grizzly 300 4-wheeler to be raffled with 100% of the proceeds benefiting Good Samaritan Ministries’ Deer Project.

Tickets are just $10 each or 12 for $100.

The 4-wheeler will be on display at the following locations:

Prosperity Bank – through July 30th
Citizens National Bank – August 1-8, 10-11
Tractor Supply – August 9
Texas Bank – August 12-19

The ATV will also be on display at the Brownwood Reunion Celebration September 19-21, across from the food court on E. Adams Street.

Tickets are available at the above locations as well as Good Samaritan Ministries, Big Country Ford, and the House of Wheels.

Partnering with hunters, landowners and area processors, Good Samaritan’s Deer Project provides protein to needy families via the donation of legally harvested white-tail deer.  Hunters are able to use their extra hunting tags by simply taking their legally harvested and tagged deer to one of the participating processors:

Perk’s Processing in Brownwood
Lone Star Processing and Taxidermy in Owens
M&M Processing in Zephyr
Santa Anna Custom Processing

At a greatly reduced rate of $1 per pound, the processors will grind the meat into two-pound chub packs ready to be picked up and put in the freezers of GSM.  It costs the hunters nothing but the time it takes to take the deer to the processor and tell them they want to donate to The Deer Project.

The proceeds from this raffle along with other monetary donations given to the Deer Project will help pay for processing the hundreds of pounds of meat given to the program.  This unique partnership of hunters, processors and donors, provides lean protein for many hungry families in Brown County.
