Jim Click Raffles a 2012 Nissan LEAF
to Benefit the COT and other Non-profits
To celebrate its 40 years in Tucson, the Jim Click Automotive Team is donating a 2012 Nissan LEAF SL, the first mass-produced all-electric car. It is the featured prize in a raffle to benefit Tucson area non-profits, and includes a charging station and installation. The lucky winner (must be age 21 or older) will be announced on April 27, 2012. Read the details of the raffle.
You can drive a Leaf for about 80-100 miles between charges. It takes about 4 hours to charge completely. This is the perfect car for Tucsonans!
Raffle tickets cost $25 each or 5 for $100. All the money that the COT brings in from raffle ticket sales is ours to keep.
How and where to purchase raffle tickets:
- From any orchestra musician or board member
- At one of our November, December, or March concerts
- At the Tucson Jewish Community Center (3800 E. River Rd.) before one of our Tuesday rehearsals. Come to the JCC between 6:45 and 7:00 pm and ask where the orchestra rehearses (or follow the sounds of musicians warming up!). You may wish to call first (730-3371) to make sure we are rehearsing that evening.
All money that the COT receives from raffle ticket sales will support our free concerts and youth outreach programs. However, money you spend to purchase a raffle ticket is not considered a donation for your tax purposes, according to IRS regulations, regardless of whether or not you win.
Please consider purchasing one or more raffle tickets to help our orchestra and the environment. Chip in with friends and relatives to buy 5 tickets for $100! We hope that one of our supporters wins the LEAF!
Show your Support with COT Merchandise!
Fans of the COT will want to show their support by wearing one of our fabulous T-shirts, specially designed for our 35th year by local artist, Sandy Darling. T-shirts are available in short ($15) or long sleeves ($18) in a variety of colors and sizes.
You can also buy a large, black recycle bag with our 35th anniversary logo in gold to hold all your groceries for $3 (two for $5).
T-shirts and COT grocery bags will be available for purchase at our March 10 and 11 concerts. Please bring cash or a check.
