[UPDATED AUGUST 21, 2022]
Steeler Football Is Back!
And So Is Temple David’s Football Fundraiser
Temple David’s Football Fundraiser is back for another Steeler’s season. Last year there were 85 participants and 36 winners, but more importantly it is really fun and a great way to raise money for the temple. Many of you have spoken about sitting on the edge of your seat during a game and winning or losing by a late field goal or last minute touchdown.
You don’t have to know anything about football to participate. There are no teams to pick or scores to guess. The football fundraiser is highlighted by a random grid designed so that a number between 1 and 100 maps onto the winning score of every Steeler regular season game and the Super Bowl (whether the Steelers are in it or not). There is a winner for the half-time score and another winner for the final score. When you request one or more entry packets, you will receive the 2022-23 grid and your randomly selected number or numbers. The grid is designed so that your numbers changes every four weeks and for the Super Bowl. There will be 36 winners. Half-time winners receive $50 and final score winners, $100. A $150 prize is awarded for the Super Bowl final score winner.
The computer generates the random entry numbers and it keeps track of everything so all you have to do to participate is send in one or more entries. Entries are $55 each and that covers the entire 17-game season plus the Superbowl. If you wish, you can send in $27.50 for a half entry and we will match you up with another half entry. Entry applications will be sent to all temple members and all past participants.
If you need an additional packet or if you have questions, please contact me at the e-mail address or phone number below.
Please play and get your friends to participate.
