Win $2,500 in restaurant gift certificates - 'A Year of Dining" Raffle



The Restaurant Association of Maryland has kicked off their fundraising campaign for their Maryland ProStart program, a hospitality school-to-career program and you could be one of the three winners. Pick one of three regions that best suits your dining needs: Baltimore, Howard County/Washington DC Suburbs and Annapolis/Eastern Shore and then buy your raffle ticket for $25 – up your odds buy buying 5 tickets at once for $100 or 12 tickets for $200.  

Each winner will receive a $100 gift certificate for 25 different area restaurants -  a $2500 total value in prizes.  Drawing date is December 7, 2015 Purchase  

As a former coach for the Carver Center’s Maryland ProStart high school culinary team I can tell you your raffle ticket purchases help send the teams through competitions, with each win comes scholarship money, joy, hard work and dedication. Watch the video above to see a Carver’s team compete and the awards ceremony.

Proceeds from the Year of Dining Raffle are used to help underwrite the cost of hosting the Maryland ProStart Student Invitational (MPSI). MPSI is the state-wide competition for high school students who are in culinary arts, restaurant management and baking programs. Over 30 teams and 100 students will be competing in these state finals. Winners receive scholarships to post secondary schools and the opportunity to represent Maryland in the National Competition.
